Ford's four victories at Le Mans assured the GT40 of immortality in the minds of motorsports enthusiasts worldwide. From the mid-to-late 1960s, Ferrari, Chevrolet, Lola, and other companies that had come to expect to win in sports-car 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 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. Ronnie Spain has travelled extensively from his native Scotland to research this book. His counsel has been sought by some of the most notable car collectors from around the globe. With an unparalleled knowledge of the GT40 in all its forms, and a fine "nose" for what is authentic in the world of competitive sports cars, Spain has earned the respect of all those who know him and his work.
