OK we are speaking GT-40 here! Any one who buys this book is certainly a die hard GT-40 enthusiast. The book being out of production is not inexpensive. However what you get from this publication by Trevor Legate is the evolution of the marque when Shelby was still building Cobra Roadsters. This is a serious publication that delivers a thorough documentation of the live of this machine that beat Ferrari
race cars that had dominated Le Mans and so many other sports car racing venues.

You get individual chassis histories and the history of hard knocks learned by
an American mind set of oval NASA car and drag strip racing to GT class racing in Europe. This was uncharted territory that took it time to develop, but like "The Moon Landing in 1969 " it was an historical event. There are many black and White and color period photos frozen in time.

This publication also goes into the Road Cars and the present day Ford GT Cars. There is even seriously a parts break down in the back of this book. like I said this is speaking GT-40 for the serious Ford Enthusiast.
