Shaking my head...naw...it's an Italian silk-suit sorta version thingie. I've
never really liked Italian design. Yes, I know, I know, but hey what can I say?

Besides, the real flavor of the GT40 lead to the Mk IV cars that won LeMans with
that monster 7 liter engine. THOSE were mean beasties. Someone mentioned Jim
Hall's Chapparals - great Group Seven sports cars.

I'd photograph ANY of those with my Leicas - just to keep things even vaguely
"on topic."
