Grumpy guys speed shop

1966 GT 40 with race history you are probably looking at a couple million dollars imo

Also check out the Ram cobra
That bloke has probably spent north of 50 grand on that???

700 BHP is my guess power wise ?? All the heads etc were imported from Australia
Induction system over 3 grand

Exhaust system custom made and chassis alterations to accommodate north of 4 grand

Not sure tbh but my guess it’s a 302 ( 5 litre)

It had to have a new camshaft fitted

I remember many years ago reading about the final Le Mans win in 1969. The 7 litre cars had been banned, so they had to go back to the original 5 litre. The new Porsche 917s all broke down whilst leading. So in the end it came down to a GT40 versus an older Porsche 908. On each lap Jacky Ickx would let the Porsche overtake on the Mulsanne straight, then slip stream it and overtake at the end because he had better brakes. They finished just a few seconds apart.
 
That bloke with the ram cobra it had a big block Chevy motor in it
Staggeringly quick

But he decided he wanted some thing authentic and went with a 427 ford set up

Did not see the point tbh ?? Cobras are so copied thatbif you had an original one some one would ask you what kit it was and did you build it
Yer self :giggle: But hey ho
 
Now back from CZ and a quick reminder how bad UK is. Been remonstrating with one of the liberals' lovely ethnic recent arrivals today. Taking a short cut through a nearby council estate, I had to pull over because I saw an Indian person fly tipping on the pavement. Broad daylight, 4pm in the afternoon. Dumping all his junk out the back of his Honda Jazz (why do Indians always drive these things?) - without a care in the world.

When I told him he couldn't do that, he said "the thing is, I've changed houses and got lots of things to get rid of". When I suggested he should go to the council tip, he excused himself by saying that others had been dumping their rubbish where he was now dumping his. When I pointed out the cameras in the square and said I hoped they prosecute him and fine him thousands, he closed his tailgate and sheepishly drove off.

Bloody ethnics! The world's rubbish washes up on these shores, then they in turn dump their rubbish wherever they want.
 
Got a ferry to today. The place is full of…..lemons. I had a lemon ice cream in a lemon.
