not a gt i dont think, not the right lines...too beefy in the rear and the lights seem wrong...could be one still though with a widebody or something. why you would need to do that to a gt is beyond me. my money is on a kit

Carl Bycks car. And yes, the gunmetal car behind the FC is a ford GT....a 900 HP ford GT IIRC....I could be wrong about the 900 though...

Since when are Ford Gts turbo? (notice the front mount and associated piping)

Since when is their rear fender so sharp of an edge?

Since when does it have extra space in the roof for headroom?



The answer is never. My money is that it is a kit car based upon the GT-40, with slight alterations.

actualy there has been a ford GT that someone Removed the Supercharger and put Twins on... But that was a custom Job. Just because it didnt come that way from the factory doesnt mean it wont fit. lol i guess we all know that...

but that was offtopic, on topic agian, I WANT ONE!!! WHERE DO I STEA... BUY IT!!!!
that has to be one of the best looking FCs 7s Ive ever seen(ONE of the best, not the best) I guess that really is an FD Front and not a custom fab...

rotary extreme actually made a front bumper like that but they discontinued it you might want to call them and see if they still have a mold and maybe you can work something out with them...
