GT40 Mk3 P1101 to 1107

FORD GT40 Mk3 Chassis # P 1101 to 1107

The Mk3 were designed as a road car only. Some changes have been made from the Mk1:
                 the car had 4 round headlamps instead of 2 rectangular.
                 the rear part of the body was extended to provide luggage space
                 the interior was more luxurious
                 the stick shift was moved to the center
                 the car was available with the steering wheel on the left side
                 the engine was tuned down and the shock absorber were softened.
All these changes made the car looking significantly different from the road version of the Mk1 which explained why the Mk3 was never popular. Road car buyers preferred to have a GT40 which looked like the racing version and only seven were built during the production years.
