At website 10347 premium cars for sale: Anamera Written up as such: "Rare Opportunity to get a GT40" 1966 Ford GT40 Mk I 4.7 litres, #1040 is in perfect condition and ready to run -Reference Number 25536
You are correct on the 2008 date. I know a prior owner of the real 1040 said it's for sale again (and I've had other people tell me the same). The 1059 ad on the Anamera site is old too, but it's still actively for sale.
Bottom line: it doesn't hurt to be on the alert for fake GT40's. It might save a potential buyer from a big headache.
