I have ZERO regrets about buying my Superformance MkIII, but if I were to buy another replica it would certainly be a GT40. After that, probably a 289 Cobra.

I will do it again - still keeping my SPF. But the next one will be a 289 Slabside.
Or another thought - 65GT350R.

I just can't bring myself to take anything of mine to the salt. Maybe El Mirage  |

For my "other" it would be something like the SL-C car from RCR. I think that will be my next endeavor

I'd keep my Unique but build a big-block '41 Willys pick-up to tow it with.

If I was to build another, it would be a fibreglass Shelby 289 FIA. I'd paint it like a '64 team car, and it would definitely have a set of Webers on a gnarly small block.
If I was to take the easy way out, it would be a Superformance GT40. And it would be painted to replicate the '66 Mercury Le Mans entry.

I'm very happy with what I have, so it would just be another car identical to what I have currently.

Surprises so far... 66% would switch from a 427. Nearly as many 289 FIA lusters as 427 SC.
I thought the slabside would have greater traction.

I would build an ERA Ford GT Mark II and paint it the colors of the Miles-Hulme entry in the 1966 LeMans 24 Hour as a tribute to the late Ken Miles, the REAL winner of that race (he also won the Daytona 24 Hour and the Sebring 24 Hour races that year and very much deserved to win the "triple crown" of 1966 endurance racing). He was also, of course, instrumental in developing the 427 Cobra (a street version of which I am building now).

I want to build a Pro-Street Yugo or AMC Pacer wagon, or a "sleeper twin turbo" replica of the Grizwald's Family Truckster.
