1966 Commemorative Shelby GT40 http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/01/s...ctory-with-co/
I would love to have a GT40 like this, even more than having a Ford GT. It has the look of the race car, and comes with a 427. Thats as close as anybody can get in owning an original Ford GT40, and i love how it looks.

Why an LS1? If you want an LS1 in something like that you get yourself a Factory Five Racing GTM Supercar, and with an LS1 not an LS7. This is the best chance anyone who has the money will get at owning history, i would love to have one. I bet it sounds like a monster with that 427.

About the only other powerplant I would consider is a worked 7 liter out of the Saleen S7 supercar, even though that would not be 'period' authentic.

Oh i totally understand what your saying it will never ever compare to an original. But i guess if i were spending the money i would want as close to original looking as possible. No Ford GT40 will ever compete with the originals, those things were/are incredible.
