Superformance chassis GT40 P 2280 was conceived as a FIA qualifying car from the start. The base idea was to copy a 1968 chassis and complete car to the full specifications set out in the original homologation including the extensions (and using chassis 1075 as an example) to obtain FIA Historic Passport papers for European and International racing. It was not an easy process and took nearly 2 years to complete.
For a 1968 version, we have been able to include a 302 engine, ventilated discs, 14 inch rims on the rear with appropriate bodywork modifications. The car is specifically built for hill climbing with very short ratios on the ZF box.
The result has been a qualifying car (FIA 34354) that also can be used for road use (yes -registered in France for everyday use) and rallies. It FIA Class is TSRC 18.
The new French owner has been the Historic Hill Climb Champion more than once in the past years – a Porsche man – and wanted to move up to 5 liters as a swan song to a long and happily successful career.
