    One of the smallest Ford powered British sports cars

    My buddy Bill restores and builds exotic cars, eventually a GT40 MK IV that we ran in vintage.
    This was one of his earlier projects that I helped him with, replacing the lower frame tubes. The car was from Long Island NY and it had been pancaked on the sand.
    We cut the FRP bonding web from under the tubes; with repair we created body mounting pads for mechanical fastening.
    After a shake-down on MKE streets we took it to vintage events at Road America.

    The 85.5 inch wheelbase contributes to pucker factor at speed, and especially exiting corners, modulating the throttle.
