Not a Ford fan but I would take the GT40 out of any of them. Reminds me something of a Ferrari or one of those dream cars you end up never seeing.

[TerminalVelocity]

[MadZ]

Nice tag, and it is what i'm leaning twords, dollar value is a big factor, i'd probally be 30 by the time I would be done with it...but...if I live to 60, thats 30 more years with it

Man,I would take both the GT-40 and the Mach-1 and throw in a 67 shelby gt500 and you got it made.

[i_rebel]

Go for the Mach 1 . . .:smoker:

Of the four, I am torn between the GT-40 and the Mach 1.

thats always been my biggest delema

[TerminalVelocity]

so one vote for rice, but no comments?....come on people, i'm serous about these cars, all are around 30,000 for total cost and finished product. Thats a hell of alot of money to me.

[LjasonL]

i voted for the rx7 just cuz its one of may favorite cars, but the gt40 was close behind.

[TerminalVelocity]

Well, ,i've decided to build (or find) a 1968 GT 40

Now I just gotta look into -cost to build- and -cost to have built-

[NSX-R-SSJ20K]

i thought that GT40's cost loads last time i heard one went for 500,000

i mean there is a big difference between a GT40 and a RX7 well it can do 200mph for a start

[TerminalVelocity]

30,000 to have built for you. I'm not talking origional, because your right with the price of an origional. And I beef up the engine etc, use a 400hp 425Torque 342.

0-100 would be faster, and top speed higher.

GT40, its more extoic, and will turn more heads and have more people asking you questions....
