[carsthatnevermadeitetc]

What a difference 56 years makes juxtaposition of Ford GT Mk IV, 1967 and Ford GT Mk IV, 2023. A final version of the 2nd generation For GT has been revealed as a limited edition, track only race car with a specially engineered twin-turbo EcoBoost engine capable of 800 + hp. There’s also racing transmission, aero-focused exterior design, and chassis with longer wheelbase for greater on-track handling. It will be limited to 67 units, referencing the original 1967 GT Mk IV race car

Only 67 units will be produced in honor of the original 1967 GT Mk IV race car. Prices for this track-only supercar start at $1.7 million. However, in order to get one, customers will have to…

Ford GT Mk IV

Ford GT MkIV continuation car at Road Atlanta, 03/2019. Unlike the GT40s, the original MkIVs were all built in Michigan and won Lemans in 1967. The MkIv is based on the Ford J chassis and are not related and does not carry the GT40 designation.

TVR Vixen

Although the Vixen used the same chassis as the outgoing Tuscan, the significant change was the use of the 1599 cc Ford Kent engine, as found in the Ford Cortina GT, developing 88 bhp. The Ford unit was selected in order to keep prices as low as possible and because of supply problems from BMC.

The Cortina unit was less powerful than the MGB engine which developed 95bhp, but it was also lighter. To use up remaining supplies, the first twelve Vixens built still received the MGB engine.

The Vixen’s bodywork was also slightly revised, with the bonnet having a broad flat air intake scoop and the rear of the car was fitted with the round “Ban the Bomb” Cortina MK I tail lamps.

The S1 was replaced by the heavily modified TVR Vixen S2 in October 1968. The S2 was built with a longer 90 inch wheelbase chassis, introduced on the Tuscan V8 but which TVR had now standardised to address complaints about difficulty of ingress. The bonnet was restyled again, with some early cars having a prominent central bulge and later cars having twin intake ducts at the front corners of the bonnet. The tail lamps were updated from the round Cortina MK I style to the newer wraparound Mark II style. Also very significant was the fact that the body was bolted, rather than bonded to the chassis, meaning it could be easily removed for repairs.

The interior was improved, with a leather-skinned steering wheel mounted much lower than before. In a further attempt to improve the quality feel, the body was thicker and panel fit was improved.

In December 1968, TVR announced that two more models, the S.2 Sport and S.2 Super Sports would be available as standard. These models came with an uprated engine from Speedwell including fully balanced bottom end, ported cylinder head and two twin choke Weber carburettors, with the Sports producing 100bhp and the Super Sports 115bhp. Both of these models came with seat belts and leather steering wheel as standard.

The S3 continued to improve the car with a number of detail changes. The heat extraction vents on the flanks behind the front wheels were decorated with “Aeroflow” grilles borrowed from the c-pillars of the Ford Zodiac Mark IV and the Ford four-cylinder engine was now in the same tune as in the Ford Capri, producing 92 bhp. Instead of wire wheels, cast alloy wheels were fitted as standard.

The S4 cars were an interim model that used the TVR M Series chassis with the Vixen body shell. Apart from the chassis, there were no significant mechanical or cosmetic changes between the S3 and S4. Twenty-two were built in 1972 and one in 1973.

The 1300 model arrived in late 1971 and was built in an attempt to fill an “economy” market segment for sports cars. It was powered by a 1296 cc Standard SC engine from the Triumph Spitfire engine making 63 bhp, and its lack-lustre performance limited its sales success. Top speed was barely 90 mph. Only fifteen were built, all in 1972. The final six of these cars were built on a M Series chassis and the very last 1300 was also built with M Series bodywork, although it never received a “1300M” designation.

Very special wheels for a very special car. Only 67 units of the new Ford GT Mk IV will be produced by Multimatic Motorsports to commemorate the 1967 victory of Dan Gurney and AJ Foyt at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the original Ford GT40. But the $1.7 million Mk IV is serious performance machine that not only makes 800+ horsepower from its twin-turbocharged 3.5L V6 Ecoboost engine but also produces massive cornering loads with real Michelin slicks and 2400 lbs of downforce at 150mph. So what kind of wheel can handle these performance demands? You're looking at it right here. Meet the  Forgeline one piece forged monoblock "Gurney"; 18x12.5/18x13.0 finished in Race Gold!

2023 Ford GT Mk IV

1967 Ford GT Mk IV

From the museum display:

“This was the first all-American car and team to win the race… The car’s sophisticated chassis borrowed heavily from aerospace techniques, and its shape was refined in a wind tunnel. But its big engine was based on Ford’s V8 used for stock car racing.”

Raced by Dan Gurney and AJ Foyt. Legends.
