This car was sold by Lee Maxted-Page three years ago for £425,000. Certainly a good little money maker.

DaveO_SP. There were a lot of automotive components in use before 1987. :hihi:

P.S. Thanks to Hipperson for the details of the sale price.

Cheers

What is the last thing you want to see happen to a new GT, especially a 3 day old #3 of 10 Roush 600re - painful! but nice parts catalogue I suppose.http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-GT-GT40-R...QQcmdZViewItem

Love the GT40 looks mint, nice color combo and awesome condition. Can't say the same about the black one. Very interesting last few yards indeed.

I could certainly use a few of the parts from the 600RE for my little project. You still couldn’t rule out any damage to the transaxle though. Looks like she’s had some sort of impact to it judging by the damage to the rear-right wheel.
