1966 GT40 MKII

MKII GT40s are all the rage since the academy award winning blockbuster “Ford v Ferrari” hit the big screen late last year. The story of Carroll Shelby, Ken Miles and the GT40s that beat Ferrari at Le Mans put these cars into the limelight worldwide. With people itching to get their own 40-inch-tall “racecar,” Superformance built GT40P2255 as a tribute to one of the original cars that took the top three positions overall in 1966.

Authenticity was the Superformance engineers' goal when recreating P2255. It carries the GT40/P chassis number and is built to the exact standards of the car back in 1966. It is so authentic that over two thirds of the rolling chassis parts are interchangeable with GT40's built in the 1960s.

The deep Sunset Red paint with Jet Black twin stripes is a gorgeous color that compliments the sleek body lines. Other exterior features include twin Gurney Bubbles, 17” Aluminum Pin Drive BRM style wheels and period correct fog lights. Plus Factory Air Conditioning to cool you down.

While the exterior is truly a showstopper, the heart of the beast drops jaws.

Equipped with a T&L 427ci Aluminum Windsor block accompanied by 4 two-barrel Weber Carburetors balanced and assembled by Probe Industries with 5 stage drysump, this engine pumps out 600 horsepower. With so much power, a stout RBT 5 Speed Transaxle is necessary to deliver the power to the pavement and push this car, like Ken Miles did, to incredible limits.

P2255 is ready for action. Whether it be a concours, a track day or a Sunday drive, this GT40 will excel in putting a smile on your face.

GT40P2255 is titled under CA SB100 Smog Exemption and would cost well over $220,000 to recreate.

GT40P2255 has 1601 miles on the chassis and is currently available for $199,950.
