I've seen better pictures but, this will at least give you an idea. The originals were raecd in the 60's.

Seizing on products like the Viper and Z06, Ford wanted to have it's own pavestone monster and decided to remake the GT40 in a street version and retail for about $100K. Expect the first couple of years to be in the rediculous price range.

Pacer trivia. What was the one weird thing about the doors on this car?

The passenger door was about a foot longer then the drivers door (supposedly to allow easy entry/exit from the rear seats)

I understand Audi is going to build a mass produced car that looks very similar to this.
