this GT40 mkII with a Holman Moody 427 was ordered by Shelby American, placed 2nd in the 12 hour Sebring in 66, DNF'd at LeMans and was driven by Mark Donohue in both. It then went on the show circuit, before getting stored at Holman Moody until '70 when it went to the Indy Speedway Museum. Effectively, it's been raced hard and put away, without being street driven, ever. http://www.carguychronicles.com/2012/05/ford-gt40-mark-ii-like-new-hardly.html

It's not too late to get to the LA Roadster show at the Pomona Fairplex... here is a quick preview of the surprises in store for you there
rows of roadsters in the cool shady areas between the buildings
battle birds in the cacklefest area
or maybe you are looking to see what car club plaques are there, and get an idea for your club
or you might want to get inpiration on a pinstripe for your trunk lid
maybe you're tired of having a contemporary dash... and want an instrument panel that stands out
to match an outstanding new upholstery idea
if you need some flame jobs to get a new idea for your hot rod there are dozens to look at and compare
all colors of flames on all colors of cars
thin flames or fat and wavy
or you have some need to change your so-so everyday old vehicles that are sitting int he back yard into something extraordinary, and need some ideas what you can make
white wall your semi, and add scallops
drop the dualie and stand out at the car cruises
get shiny
take a stripped down Helms bakery truck and made a hot rod
or create a cool trailer for your cool car
even Volvos can get hot rodded
watch out for young hooligans who challenge others to wheel chair races in the parking lot or swap meet
or check out the LA Roadster show to see what cool new projects are getting their public debut
or head inside when you get enough sun and see what the pro's are up to at the Walden Speed Shop
or Steve's Auto Restorations
look at the prices and bring lotsa cash... the cost of doing business as a vendor must be hefty to charge about 5 bucks more at a fairground than at Costco. If you can't see the prices in the below photo, click on it for full size, or take a 10 dollar bill for anything on the menu
if you've been thinking of what to get your dad for Father's day, or to get yourself because the office or garage needs something
and maybe the walls could use a piece of art
these wooden cars are fantastic, and your work area or desk would be less boring with one to look at
and you ought to see the latest that BOMONSTER has created to amuse and entertain
shake hands with the greats! Tom Medly, Don Montgomery, and Ron Covell
and say Hello! To Laura at the Hagerty booth, they can get your info and give you a quote to compare prices with other classic car insurance companies... but the support Hagerty gives the auto hobby is far beyond what any other car insurance company does.
keep your kids off the race cars! Have them sit in the Glide Engineering seats, buckets and benches... Test them out!
all happening on Sunday June 17th, or every Fathers Day weekend if you can't make it this year, and will do it next year... in Pomona, just North of Los Angeles, about 4 miles East of the 57 where it intersects with the 10, and take White Street exit, go about 4 miles northwest, and park int he BIG fairgrounds parking lots. Those cost 10 bucks
