This immaculate 1984 GTD 40 is based on the 1968 and 1969 Le Mans-winning Ford GT40 Mk.1, which in its time was one of just two cars to win the race twice in a row, and participated in one of its great finishes as Jacky Ickx and Hans Herrmann dueled for the lead in the final laps of ’69 , finishing just seconds apart after 24 hours.
This tribute car is an affordable piece of the legend, and is up for sale at the Classic Throttle Shop.

It was built in 1984 by GT Developments in Poole, UK, finished to the highest of standards and swathed in the iconic Gulf livery. And for a little fun, it’s offered with complete New South Wales registration, so you’ll be able to cruise the streets in one of the most stunning race cars of all time, with that mighty 4.7-litre V8 burbling behind you and under your full command.
