Just watching Ford GT race in ALMS race in Mid Ohio and it occured to me that there must have been at least a dozen leftover space frames at the Saleen plant and at Ford from GTs that wee used as test cars and can't be sold to the public. If I had an inkling these still exist, I would write Ford to suggest they donate these to the teams racing Ford GTs today (I think there's at least five teams) but don't know if these leftover frames, transaxles, etc. were put into a dumpster . Ford says they built the GT "to polish the blue oval" and those Ford GTs out on the track do that, so this would all be in line with the original objective (though in an ideal world, ti would have been nice if Ford had supported a racing team while the cars were still in production).

So anyone who knows someone who worked at Saleen or Ford at the end of the Ford GT buildout--where did the fifteen or so test car chassis go? And even a transaxle is worth $20,000, which , if donated to a race team, ought to pay a team's diesel fuel bill in transporting a Ford GT race car across the country
