No Reserve Classics proudly presents this 2018 Superformance GT40
MKI, 427 CI, 5-Speed Manual, Right Hand Drive Pro-Touring
Restomod!
Power comes from a Roush 427 CI V8 featuring eight individual
throttle bodies, each topped with polished air filter housings.
Gumout-style valve covers, silver ceramic-coated headers, and a
detailed engine bay showcase its motorsport DNA. The engine is
paired to a Quaife 5-speed manual transaxle, delivering direct,
mechanical engagement. A battery disconnect switch adds
race-inspired functionality. Cooling and airflow are optimized
through functional side air intakes and race-bred ducting.
The exterior of this 2018 Superformance GT40 MkI is a striking
tribute to one of the most dominant endurance race cars ever built.
Finished in iconic Gulf Oil-inspired Light Blue and Orange livery,
the car immediately evokes the legendary 1969 Le Mans-winning GT40,
capturing the unmistakable visual identity that defined an era of
international motorsport. Superformance builds its GT40 models
using licensed and correct blueprint specifications that faithfully
replicate the original Ford GT40's proportions, stance, and
structural layout. The result is a body that is not simply inspired
by the original-but engineered to mirror it with precision. The car
rides on staggered 15-inch BRM-style pin-drive wheels secured by
polished knock-off spinners, wrapped in Avon CR6ZZ race tires. This
combination preserves the correct vintage motorsport stance while
delivering modern grip and performance capability. Even the
smallest details reflect historical accuracy-period-style lighting,
proper body contouring, and correct panel fitment reinforce the
authenticity of the build. Superformance's use of proper
construction methods and adherence to original GT40 specifications
ensure that this car maintains the visual and structural integrity
expected by serious collectors.
The interior of this 2018 Superformance GT40 MkI stays true to its
endurance-racing roots, faithfully replicating the compact,
driver-focused layout of the original GT40 using correct
blueprint-based dimensions and right-hand-drive configuration. The
cockpit is trimmed in black leather upholstery with fixed-back
racing seats featuring ventilation grommets and Willans multi-point
harnesses, creating an authentic competition feel. A
leather-wrapped steering wheel on a quick-release hub sits ahead of
a 200 MPH speedometer and full Smiths instrumentation, including
oil pressure, oil temperature, water temperature, voltage, and fuel
level gauges. A roll bar and removable rear bulkhead reinforce the
race-inspired environment, while GT40-branded carpets subtly refine
the space. Though purpose-built and mechanical in character, air
conditioning has been discreetly integrated, allowing this Le
Mans-inspired machine to remain both authentic and road-usable.
Beneath the surface, this 2018 Superformance GT40 MkI is engineered
with a monocoque-style chassis architecture that closely mirrors
the structural design of the original Le Mans-winning GT40, built
using correct blueprint specifications and proper construction
techniques. More than two-thirds of the rolling chassis components
are interchangeable with original GT40 parts, reinforcing its
authenticity and engineering integrity. The suspension features
adjustable coilovers for precise handling control, while Wilwood
4-wheel disc brakes with slotted rotors provide confident stopping
power. A Quaife 5-speed manual transaxle is integrated into the
rear-mounted drivetrain layout, supported by a transmission cooler
for durability. Additional functional details include a front-end
lift system for improved drivability, an aluminum pedal box, engine
bay roll bar, and properly routed race-inspired ducting-all
combining to deliver the structural rigidity and mechanical feel
expected from a true GT40 continuation build.
