Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

LHD prototype, originally numbered XP 130 1, 67 NY Auto Show. 893 miles from new. Chrome wire wheels, excellent paint, good original interior and chrome. The lowest mileage GT40 known. Stored at Kar Kraft after shipping damage, sold to Seward Mellon in 1974, then Ralph Brass in 1976. No miles since. Four color changes from Dark Metallic Blue to Red to BRGreen to the present Yellow. 4 bbl carb.

Market commentary

And just exactly who cares about a GT40 that has 893 miles Particularly one thats had its roof flattened in shipment and replaced and had four color changes Every mile dimishes its sole claim to exceptionality. It could be enshrined, like some ancient Russian icon or saints relic, as an object of veneration, but whats the point It deserves to be driven and enjoyed and for that, $450K is enough.
