Nice story (and pics). Thanks. I've never been a big Ford fan. I grew up in a GM family - Pontiacs and Buicks - then transitioned to more "exotic" brands: Porsche, AMC, Subaru, Jeep and Chrysler. With a Ford E-150 van along the way. But I must say that the Mark IV GT40 is one amazingly good looking car. I appreciated your history lesson and the photo.
