GT 40 color??????

Tim,
I get more attention in a campground than at a carshow. It's a lot of fun. More people ask about the trailer than the GT.
Dwight, It's a custom built. I designed it and had it
built to my specs. The outside is stainless steel
unpainted with black vinyl stripes. It has a 12 volt
and a 110 volt system with A/C . Pulls like a dream.

This is another wire combo.... This is my friend Karl's ERA..

Mine's similar to Hersch, but no center stripes. Almost any color looks good on a 40. Dark colors are stunning, but harder to keep clean. That trailer is pretty unique Hersch.

I think Linden Green is a great classic race livery for a GT40. Gotta have black wheels too....not a color most people like, but I do!

I agree. I love that green as well. Black wheels do make make GT40 replicas look very authentic.

I would definitly advise going with a historic color scheme, they look fantastic and hold their value the best. GT40s in my opinion should not be painted "show car" colors, they just do not lend themselves to that. my Mk1 is guardsman blue and that colot works well on the MK1. Mk11 cars look better in different colors, but again stick to the historic schemes.

When I was considering one, I thought #101 was the look...the FAV car in the American FIA coulors of a white body and a blue (very dark) matte finished front deck and a sill stripe with " Ford " about even with the A pillar...later they added a center stripe (like #102) but I really liked the original look...but like Doc sez the " historic colors" or if in Europa, the historic coulors... gee, maybe I will do it yet...

Yeah, I have to agree that it does looks odd seeing a GT towing a teardrop camper.
I tell you that picture with the little boy in theAM#2 is what it's all about. He will remember that.

SwiftDB4... Your front clip is the best one of all the mark twos. I think that makes a big difference if you could see them all together with the different noses most would choose yours.
