Ford's four victories at Le Mans assured the GT40 of immortality in the minds of motor sport enthusiasts. From the mid to the late 1960s, Ferrari, Chevrolet, Lola and others who had come to expect to win in sportscar racing learned to treat the slim-silhouetted GT40 with the utmost respect.
Author Ronnie Spain took over a decade to research the history of every GT40 chassis, their racing histories and their owners. No more complete mass of data concerning the fascinating GT40 is available in one volume.
From its initial design study stages in 1964, to its final competition form for the 1970 season, the GT40 was subjected to both major body changes and detailed modification. Ronnie Spain has traced the evolution of each chassis. He has also noted the drivers' reactions to their machines, the handling characteristics, the notable incidents, and much more in his dense, richly packed narrative.
