1965 Continuation CS GT40 MK1 WIDE BODY


Drive the Legend!

We no longer present the GT40.
This racing beast, designed by Eric Broadley on behalf of Ford, who, annoyed at not having been able to buy the company dear to Enzo, intended to beat Ferrari on its own ground and in particular at Le Mans. This was done in 1966 with a legendary Triple Win but also the following three years.
From 1965 to 1969, the GT40s covered themselves with glory on all the circuits of the world. 126 cars were built and the rare original copies still existing are trading at stratospheric prices.
Nevertheless, the dream remains possible, with this splendid CS GT40 MK1 "Continuation".

It comes in a Wide Body type "Le Mans 1969" configuration, identical to the one with which Jacky Ickx and Jackie Oliver triumphed that year. Proof of the authenticity of the approach, more than 90% of the parts and components of the chassis and bodywork of this CS (for Carroll Shelby) GT40 MK1 are interchangeable with those of the priceless cars of the time. Built under license from Safir Spares LLC, which holds the rights to the name “GT40”, the CS GT40s are listed in the Shelby American World Registry, absolute benchmark guaranteeing the maintenance of a high resale rating. Very well built, perfectly reliable and registered, this beautiful icon only asks to accompany you for the most exclusive rallies as well as for the most beautiful track days (it is also equipped with a racing roll bar).
