Does anyone know how to reach Ray Christopher? I understand he may have records from GTD. I am trying to find out if and when my car #GTD4004489 was built at the factory or how it came to the US. Thanx Sam

Gordy, It is good to hear from you. The Michigan title read "1965 Ford", the title guys in NC put it "1965 Ford Replica" which is causing the export problem. So from what I have learned this is the 44th chassis build in 89. Malcolm, I am hoping to prove that it was built in England. If any...

I actually bought it from Gordy. He is the one that told me that it was built at the factory. I am hoping to get some confirmation and records. Thanx Sam

Picture of sway bar. I found a data plate: chassis No GTD4004489. Are there any records of origin?

Thanks Mike

I have GTD frame number GTD4004489. I understand that it was built by the factory in 1991 (?). I have the car for sale by a broker (DC Classic Cars). I have had inquiries from Europe and Canada. The North Carolina title reads 1965 Ford Replica. The replica part causes problems for export. I was...

Holman & Moody in Charlotte NC built some cars in the day. Holman is still around I think. A few years ago I went to his shop. He had two original cars bodies on stands. He said he would build me one race ready for $500,000.

How about a factory built GTD with 351 Windsor putting out 450 hp? Street legal in US. Less than 1000 miles.

Yes the red one is @ Oltoff's Superformance. The yellow one is at Kenny's shop. He was firing up the 600hp 427 for the first time. He is also converting an original GT Can-Am car to a MK4. The day I took my GT40 to Olthoff's dyno there where 5 GT40's at least 6 Cobras and an original MK4 and...

I think they are all sold.

Kenny Thompson of Denver NC spent 7 years building plans built GT40 MK4s. These are amazing, down to the last rivet. All have 427 big block. He even used glued up aluminum honey comb and stick aluminum welding. Even the the front and rear spindle uprights where recast. One is a Breadwagon that...

There is a NEW MK4 Bread Wagon J-19. There where two "Breadwagon" MK4s made. One was destroyed in a crash and the other in structural testing. Now there is a brand new one. Built from scratch from plans by Kenny Thompson in Denver NC. It is J-19. This is one of 6 scratch built MK4s built by...

Have you ever wanted to drive your GT40 at Daytona Rolex course? PBOC of Florida has track days Oct 19-21 this year. PBOC membership is $30. Event includes racing and HPDE. PBOC Motorsports Club Let's see if we can get some GT40s there.:thumbsup:

My own update: Since I could not get a good OHM check on the sending unit I opened it up. The slide and the resistant wires looked OK, I checked the ohms there and they where good, approx 20 full & 250 empty. Finally I took the blade connector that is on the bottom side of the attaching plate...

Thanks, The people @ Nisonger are distributors & have what I need.
