ERA 1966 MK1 GULF BODY FORD GT40P2036 SPYDER/ROADSTER.   

 

The ERA GT 40 replica is generally regarded as one of the top GT40 replicas ever produced.  The ERA GT40 chassis is visually and structurally very similar, and in some cases, superior, to the original GT40 chassis.  ERA incorporates many improvements to implement the transition from pure race car to practical street transportation.  The chassis is a monocoque structure like the original, but instead of cold-rolled mild steel like the original, the ERA chassis is made of 14 to 20 gauge stainless steel, making it about 50 lbs. heavier than the original.  That’s a small price to pay for greatly increased corrosion resistance and reliability.  The chassis has been modified to allow left or right hand drive.  By narrowing the rocker panels slightly, more interior space and comfort was achieved.  Like the original, it has a built in structural roll bar.   The car being sold here has an additional MKII style full roll cage, making it even safer than the original street cars.

 

Unique and rare, one of one.

Original GT40 Radiator.

5 point harnesses. 

SVRA race logbooks. 

Electric cooling fans.

Raced at Road America, Road Atlanta, Roebling Road, Moroso.  Was invited to participate in the latest GT40 reunion at Road America, Elkhart Lake, WI.   This is a dual purpose car—a fun street car that can be driven to work daily, and which won’t embarrass you on the track.  Drive to the track, race it, and then drive it home; just like they did in the 60s.

Maserati Alfieri Concept lands on US shores ahead of 2016 production model

Sun, 17 Aug 2014

America, meet the next sports car from Maserati. This is the Alfieri Concept, and it made the trip from Europe to make its US debut during the 2014 Monterey Car Week.
The two-door originally made its debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, and has since made an ear-pleasing visit to the UK before it arrived at today's Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
For those that need a refresher, the Alfieri is a 2+2 that will, when it arrives in 2016, be available with a 410-, 450- or 520-horsepower V6, with the latter two power levels coming with an all-wheel-drive system. The Alfieri Coupe will be joined by a convertible in 2017.

Maserati Alfieri Concept seen and heard in early leak [w/video]

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

As is so often the case ahead of a major debut, somebody wasn't able to keep the latest concept car from Maserati under wraps all the way until the drawing of its curtain at the Geneva Motor Show. The low-slung silver coupe you see above is said to be the Maserati Alfieri Concept, and, though these images aren't exactly the greatest, it looks pretty good. We like the small proportions of the Alfieri and the aggressive look of the car's front and rear fascias, and we certainly note a more assertive design than the Granturismo it would likely replace.
Rumor has it that both V6 and V8 engines may be on the table, mounted up front and driving either the rear or all four wheels, but we'll have to wait for official confirmation before we know for sure. In any case, this new Maserati, if it does go into production, is tipped to line up against such sporting contenders as the Jaguar F-Type and Porsche 911. Check out the two leaked images above, watch and listen to the car move under its own power in the video below, and feel free to let us know what you think in the Comments.

Camal Studio pays tribute to the Maserati GranTurismo

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Although the Maserati GranTurismo may have looked pretty hot when it hit the scene in 2007, eight years on, it's starting to show its age. Maserati is focusing its attention on the new Quattroporte, Ghibli and upcoming Levante utility vehicle, but Camal Studio is evidently keen to pick up what Maserati has let fall by the wayside.
The design house, as you may recall, was founded by former Pininfarina designers - the same firm that penned the GranTurimso (among other Maseratis) in the first place. Camal calls its redesign the Tributo (a name which should require no translation) and it draws its inspiration from Maserati GTs past like the original Ghibli, Bora and Khamsin. The resulting design comes across as clean enough, but to our eyes somewhat unremarkable. And if you're going to go to the trouble of coachbuilding a Maserati, you might as well go for a bit more visual impact. But that's judging solely from the renderings, and that's just our opinion - the financially well-endowed customers Camal is going after may feel otherwise once they see it in the flesh.
