During a Histo Cup Austria on Masaryk circuit, I have filmed not one, but two (both silver) original Ford GT40s Mark I from 1966. They are both fitted with a mufler, so they aren't the loudest on the track, but the 4.7 litre V8 sound is incredibly awesome. Turn up the volume and listen to this Le Mans winner!
Don't forget do give a thumbs up and subscribe for more videos!
Thanks for watching

Funny.. just like in the movie they still have issues closing its doors.
Was remembering that too.
i was just thinking the same thing, lol
Just slam it with a rubber mallet! 😂
xevious2501 that happened in real life too tho
@@-thebatman- i mean its not like its based off real life or anything
Ford never made anything finer.
Shelby GT350 :)
My '99 F250 might be a close 2nd. 😁

In my opinion this is the most beautiful car of the world, was is and going to be..... I love Ford.
The new Ford GT may not be as historically cool as the originals, but they look better than the mid 2000's Ford GT, and they are definitely more race oriented. The 2000's Ford GT were basically road going tributes to the original. The new Ford GT is technically street legal, but in reality it is a cutting edge, race ready screamer! In building it, Ford is illustrating the same willingness to embrace exotic world class racing technology, just like in 1964 when they began building GT-40 Mk1's.
Some are disappointed by Ford's decision to use a 6 cylinder, instead of a 4 valve modular V-8. But it's twin turbo 3.5L "Ecoboost" V-6 puts out 600 horsepower, with less weight. Its WAY faster and better handling than the 2005 GT. How can you complain about a 600hp, 3.5L V-6??
Patrick McLeod I can. I want American muscle not these wimpy ass V6s breaking down all the time. Ecoboosts are extremely unreliable
Rusty- I drive 2018 Ford Raptor with tiny, 3.5 liter EcoBoost with two turbochargers. I’ve had several true muscle cars, such as 1970 SS Chevelle. Trust me, the tiny, modern EcoBoost feels like an old big block. What’s really surprising is the amount of torque even before the boost kicks in. I love my Raptor.
Patrick McLeod the 2005 GT is very nice and highly desireable. performance was/is real good. wonder what kind of after market things they have for them .im a big fan of the GT with the 427 in them.
Patrick McLeod The new one sounds like shit and has nothing to do with what the Ford GT is. They should've called it something else, even if it was similar. It's just not what people wanted as the Ford GT.
Words simply cannot describe how beautiful this thing is .
The Ford GT40 and the Porsche 917 are two of the finest looking machines ever created!
I agree
GT 40 designed and built in England... Mk 1. Mk 2 . Mk 3
Ferrari 512S, Porsche 962 aren't worse
what about the ferrari 312p
And the mazda 787b😌
How much grip do you want.
Ford: yes
Design of this car is so timeless and so ahead of it's time. It always stand out from all the other cars of that era.
In summer of 1972 I worked at Standard Oil gas station in Birmingham, Michigan. Corner of Maple & Crandbrook Cross streets. Suburb of Detroit. Mr. Kinsler of Kinsler Fuel Injection got gas for his GT40 there. He would not permit me to put the gas in, he did it himself. He had a section of carpet with a round hole in the center that was placed around the fuel cap. So I’ve stood alongside one of these beasts that was driven on the street!!! Obviously I will never forget.
My older brother said and I sort of remember, that Stark Hickey Ford on Woodward avenue had a GT40 in the showroom
Were you pumping Ethel?
@@attitudeadjusted9027 lol the flesh Ethel or the fuel Ethel? Lol!
@@darrenkastl8160 well either one lol 😅.
@@attitudeadjusted9027 ,
Al Bennet Ford in Grand Blanc, Michigan had one sitting out front but not for sale, I think he just had it sitting there as a 'magnet'.
These shapes, this sound ... Awesome car, incomparably beautiful and breakthrough for its time.
This car's design is so ahead of its time
Straight beast of a car and elegant at the same time. Too bad we don’t make cars like this anymore.

Oi mate you beat me to it
yeaaaa.

It's cartoonish how wide those rear tires are, I absolutely love it.
Did anybody else notice the size of the rear wheels at the beginning too?
DerpyAppleGaming how could we not?xD
they are 14 inch
Did anyone not notice?
It’s the first thing I noticed in the thumbnail
DerpyAppleGaming yah Budd that was stock
Still one of the most incredible race cars ever... way ahead of its time!
Current race cars get better performance, but haven't this sound and neither this exciting charm.
The first 5 seconds...nuff said😍
Sounds like someone just woke up a dragon.
Disagree. Its never enough!
Bro facts
One of the greatest designs ever...and the sound of the engine is awesome!
I love the shape of cars from this era, not just the GT40 but also cars like the LOLA / Broadley T70
That sound screaming down the track legit game me goosebumps.
Seeing this beautiful machine doing what it was built to do makes me happy.
The most beautiful moment of this video is the shot @ :20 of the perfectly mis-matched, raw cut exhaust pipes... That is PURE beauty to behold...
I’m getting emotional just trying to describe the sounds that car makes. Unbelievable.
it's just a car
Zane Gibson who the FUCK asked you “Zane”?
Nothing and I mean nothing sounds better than a well tuned V-8!!! You can have your 4, 5, 6, 10, 12 cylinder engines! I'll take the sound of a V-8 any day!!!
They committed murder with the stupid eco boost twin turbo v6
That's due to the bundle of snakes exhaust set up, changes the exhaust note.
I'll take six. The simpler the better. V8 is just ingrained in culture amd tradition.
I'll take the 6
@@carlosandleon
Nothing on earth sounds like a short stroke oversquare v8. Absolutely nothing.
@@DarkMatterX1 except for your mom's moans
From a time, when cars where made for real racers. Made with soul and great spirit! A time, when they got pure power, u feared when u touched the door. I love this!!
Regardless of how many other cars were in the shot, accelerating, it was only the sound of this engine you notice . Distinctive !
When in the cockpit it drives you you cant drive it it wasnt designed for us it was built to WIN 1,2,3, come fly with me. I,ll never forget 1st 2nd & 3rd place. My dad was yell'n at the top of his lungs. LoL what a victory back in the day.he bought a little race track and some cars for me and my brother .we had a blast i was like 7 or 8 a truly awesome memory .
First impression in first seconds of the video: Best motor sound I have ever heared!
Is there a better looking car? Will there ever be a better looking car? This was 1966 I was 10. My favourite car. 2nd favourite is the Dino.
The porsche 917 is right up there with the GT40. I can't decide which i like more. The 917 does have the air cooled boxer 12.
250 GTO is a nicer looking car😎
33 stradale, for me
same then 3rd is the lambo countach
The Pantera it's right up there as well👌
Amazing sound-still after all these years
A true predator and work of art after all these years its still a frek'n beast that must be respected and feared.
2020 and still is my favorite designed race car.
Low center of gravity along with wide body. Tiip of front spoiler flows right into the tip of the rear spoiler effortlessly.
Perfect design.
I love my Porsche 996 Twin Turbo, but the Ford GT- nails it.
Thank you for the video! The Ford gt is my all time favorite race car :)
Thank you for watching and commenting ;-) I love it too!
52 years old and STILL showing the NEW cars how to do it! LOL thanks for the upload!!
You´re welcome, hope you enjoyed!
Man the 1966 Ford GT is really ahead of it’s time
Una delle auto più belle di tutti i tempi.
This car is amazing, one of my favorite ones!
There wasn't any mistaking that big V8 sound in the 60's and there's no mistaking it today!
As long as that V8 sound roars around Le Mans Carrol Shelby Lives on.
Exciting sights and sounds!
Sounds pretty damn smooth!
Love that sound.
Man oh man!!!! That car !!! Im speechless!!!
Right hand drive..🇬🇧 And yes 56 years later that door is still a problem..😮 A thing of beauty is a joy forever❤
Fantastic evidence of the talent, heart, and soul of Ford Motor Company. Matchless.
That’s one badass Ford GT. Would love to have one.
0:03 use me as a replay
Leon Harvey you’re the real mvp in this comment section 😎👊
Seriously that's the most brutal startup I've ever seen
Oh my that sounded good!
Looks good even today! Wow
Perfection!!
Stunning
The sound of VICTORY!!
Still one of the best looking mid engine cars of all times.
I’m not a Ford fan... but this model could turn me in a heartbeat...
Because she is wearing Italian skin. 🇮🇹
that is the most aggressive yet sweetest looking ride,and it sounds like something you just dont wanna make angry.1966 I wanna go so fast my skin melts,2020 Tesla's and teletubbies oh yeah.
This is the best pipe organ in the history of man.
It still looks awesome.
Is this an original? If so, that is a piece of history right there, and a damn legendary one.
As a 14 yo In 1969 my mom would take me to the orthodontist. In the parking lot was his street legal Ford GT-40 that I drooled over every visit. I would read Autoweek and the classified section listed for a long time a pair of GT-40s for sale at $10K each. Amazing.
Amazing!
This sound is great.
Some say it's the Porche 917 or the Ferrari 330 P4, but for me, there has never been such a good looking BEAST of an automobile.
Awesome!
Neskutečné záběry!! Mas talent jako málokdo 😍
Terezie Jouklová souhlasím 😍
Děkuji Vám fanynky, rád bych ovšem upozornil na to, že jsem zadaný.
Esse poderosíssimo GT 40 me faz lembrar de minha infância, do Autorama Mônaco da Estrela, de 1968.
47 Ferrari owners feared this beautiful beast!😍🔥
Nice video! Thanks! Love the sound! Would love to hear a GT and Ferrari go at it!!! Together! God bless
This is what a proper car sounds like
A racing legend.
Awesome sound god damn it!
Sweet,love to tear around the track in that machine.
Those big slicks on the rear kept this car from sliding off the track. I've noticed that most GT-40s when pushed hard slide a lot. Big wide slicks help tremendously. Nice car though.
Agreed. This is not how a Mk1 usually looks.
That thing sounds like pure evil and i love it.
Gran Turismo Sport did a damn good job capturing the sound of this monster.
DAMN! zthats a beautiful machine! I love those so much. One day......one day. I also love the Mach 40. Very cool combo of this and my favorite Mustang can't be anything but great.
That is the prettiest noise i've heard in my life..
The door still the same! Awsome car!
Listen to that engine .👍😍
Amazing machine
Pure raw Beast !!
I love that car!
The sound makes my eyes tear up, not shure why.
❤️Carol and Ken thx for this Beast😍🤘
Badass! This car had one purppose, beat the rest!
Most beautiful car I’ve ever seen
nice!
The perfect beast
You can take your 787Bs your R18s and your Speed 8s and run hot laps all day but you’ll never have a car that’s worthy of putting a time down like the GT40
I mean the 787B is pretty damn good
Driven pretty hard. Nice.
Still a good looking car, even by todays standards. That sound is amazing!
It actually isn't hard to compete with today's standards of beauty imo. Have you seen the new BMW 7 series? Anything made prior to the 70s is stunningly beautiful...
Nice cars
The reason why the gt40 hasnt changed much ,its been perfect since 69
IT`S MY DREAM!!!
Ronco alucinante!
That car is over 50.... WOW!
those hips do not lie
The Ford GT40 MK1. IMO the best race car ever made.
The body styling is just amazing. I find this so much more raw and straight race car looking than all the Ford Gts after it. Don’t get me wrong they’re all awesome, but that is so distinctly superior lol
Ford should never ever put the ecoboost in the 2018 model. 1966 gt 40 and 2005 Ford Gt are some of the greatest cars ever made.
ace 1 they’re all about efficiency of course they’re going to do it
2018 Ford GT makes more power and is quicker and faster than both.
At least the Ecoboost they did use is *the greatest* V6 ever made, so the new GT has that going for it. 😉
V6 w/ twin turbos and E85 from the factory lol
FordGTGuy I don’t know if you knew this but the fordgt40 had only 440 hp if it had 200 it would be faster than the current ford gt
