Vehicle Description
In the realm of automotive legends, there exists a timeless
masterpiece that captures the essence of speed, power, and
style-the 1966 Ford GT40 MK I. However, the one we present to you
is not just any GT40; it is a meticulously crafted RCR40 MK1 Deluxe
Plus Continuation/Replica, a street-legal marvel born in 2022,
boasting a mere 187 miles on its impeccable build.
Under the hood lies the beating heart of this automotive titan-a
427 Stroker V8 w/ 427 Rotating Assembly & 351 Dart Bored Block,
delivering an exhilarating 585 horsepower. The engine build
receipts, totaling over $25,000, bear witness to the dedication
invested in crafting this powerhouse. Paired with a ZF Transaxle
5-Speed H-Pattern Gearbox, a $15,250 unit, the RCR40 promises an
unmatched driving experience.
Draped in the distinguished BMW Brooklyn Gray Metallic with bold
black racing stripes, this GT40 stands as a testament to the
marriage of elegance and aggression. The aluminum monocoque
chassis, billet aluminum rear chassis brace, and front and rear
body mounting structure showcase the commitment to authenticity and
craftsmanship.
Every detail of this masterpiece has been carefully considered and
meticulously implemented, from the Stack Fuel Injection MPF1 system
to the left-hand drive configuration. The DOM street-spec roll
hoop, billet aluminum suspension components, and custom rack and
pinion steering unit ensure both performance and safety on the road
or track.
The RCR40's stopping power is equally impressive, with six-piston
front brake calipers, four-piston rear brake calipers, and 11.75" x
1.25" vented rotors. The BRM pin-drive wheels, 15" x 8" front and
15" x 10" rear, wrapped in a Tri-Wing Spinner and Adapter Package,
complete the iconic GT40 look.
Inside the cockpit, the driver is greeted by a 200 MPH GPS-based
speedometer, 8,000 RPM tachometer, fuel level gauges, voltmeter,
and more-all monitored from the vintage-style steering wheel. The
pair of leather GT40 stainless steel grommet seats provide both
comfort and a connection to the racing heritage.
This RCR40 has been titled as a reconstructed classic car, urging
you to explore its prowess while adhering to local and state laws.
Recent tuning and a four-wheel alignment by Pocono Sportscars LLC
ensure peak performance on any road or track.
Notably, the RCR40 holds a special place in automotive history, as
the Ford vs. Ferrari movie chose RCR to build 28 cars for what has
become the reference movie for the GT40. Whether cruising the
streets or dominating the track, the RCR40 promises an
unforgettable driving experience.
As you take in the exceptional build, it's essential to note that
the body may show minor flaws, as revealed in the included photos.
However, these imperfections only serve to underscore the hand-laid
fiberglass body's authenticity and uniqueness.
In conclusion, the RCR40 MK1 Deluxe Plus Continuation/Replica is
more than just a car; it's a time capsule that transports you to
the golden era of racing. With its performance pedigree, meticulous
craftsmanship, and a touch of nostalgia, this GT40 beckons you to
partake in an automotive adventure like no other. Welcome to the
legacy of speed-welcome to the RCR40.
