@@drsrsv8884 That is what Tom Hnatiw who co-hosted with Peter on the original Dream Car Garage show before he died used to say after driving a nice car. Try to work on not being such a clueless butt-hole.
Peter, I've said this before, you and your family are the class act of the auto industry/hobby. Thank you for including us in this awesome purchase... God bless, Mr. Klutt 😊
This is the content we want to see! I believe a modern day version of this show would be wildly successful. This side of the hobby is top rarely shared and it's the best part!
Congrats on the purchase. We'll deserved and going to be well preserved. One of the most iconic cars in history. It's design is still exotic. A timeless thing of beauty.
Peter love your podcasts on all your cars, especially with your son, father and son with the same love and interest in cars, this GT 40 and the 62 to 66 Ferrari GTOs are some of my favourite cars of my teen years,thanks for your shows and be safe.😎🇨🇦
I’ve been following you, Gary and your restorations on Tv and TH-cam for years. You have a first class operation and you have top notch cars in your inventory that worth every penny you are selling them for !
thank you for sharing this experience, i feel when nowadays we see so many high priced machines the feeling of a great car gets lost, not so with this video, that great car energy is there, again, thank you
Very very few or these cars were ever built. After learning about the whole history of the GT40 and the four wins at Le Mans. Would be such a honor to own such a car.
I played golf at a course in Milton (Condo Now)Back in 2003.Behind me was Tom and his young son getting in 9 holes.Told him i loved his show.R.I.P. Tom😢
I've got a set of the FORD press docs for the GT40 MK1 and MK2... it was in with a ton of old SCCA and Porsche docs from the 60's I acquired from the widow of an old SCCA racer.
That should be a 6 million plus car. Private sales are all over price wise. But I'd hang on to that one. Harley is a great wheel man too..I know you wanted to offer him 2.8 ish.. 🤭 wires look great.. Gary needs to drive it too..
Peter, I grew up watching your show❤ do you have any books or videos on the ins and outs of the business for someone that would like to follow your foot steps? Do I need a car like this 😂
As soon as he got on it I was ok who do I pay! That thing sounds so damn good! Well I just heard the price it's a bit high then I would want to pay but 2.5 who be about right unless you just had to have it and then 3 mill it is! Kinda hard to get them off that price I understand that's what I would price it at!
being bugging a guy for decades on his Boss 9 that just sits in a building and looked like new. has the tank even drained . turns out someone offshore heard of it too and a bag of money stole it away
I have to have a GT40 in my life... I'm going to have one. Okay not a real one, I plan to drive mine pretty much every day. Seriously I do... But I just have to have one.
My initial thought was to keep anything from inadvertently falling down into the carbs, while still letting air get in. Made from lexan so you can still see the beauties.
A used car dealer transaction at an entirely different level. 😀 Is Peter keeping it? If not, I just hope it is (or was) eventually purchased by someone who will not be afraid to use it as it was intended vs. putting into a museum. And if you take it to your local cars and coffee once in a while, kudos!
That street GT40 seems to be MUCH more Spicy than the road spec. one Matt from CarWow drove, that is in the Peterson Magazine guru's collection. That one Matt drag raced against the '05 and the '17. I thought all the street GT40's only had the 306hp Shelby Mustang spec. single Holley carb engine. Do you why this one's got the Weber's ?!
Hi Peter , don't have the money 4 an original or new 2005/6 version. Or the new Mk 1. However if money 💰 wasn't an object l would go with the Mk1 from a Queensland Australian Company. And a 2005/6 money 💰 available. Not a fan of the newer versions personally. ❤ 'ed Ur TV Show . 📺 Robert Australia 🇦🇺.
Imagine how many PEOPLE you could help with $3 million. My ego would be 3 million times more boosted helping PEOPLE than purchasing something that will barely get used. Its enough for me to see it on this video, and know it exists, more than covetously lusting for it. Cool car for sure. I value people over objects tho.
@@grahambell4298 Sounds about right,Mercedes just sold a 1965 300 SLR from their private collection for a cool $142million and the one that Sterling Moss raced is valued at nearly $400million….Thx for replying..
Big deal! Bit Coin, downtown Toronto Condos, and GT40's. It's purely a business investment. Nothing wrong with that, let me be clear, but damn few buy these cars to drive and watch depreciate with every mile and stone chip.
Do you need a car like this? Nobody needs a car like this. Do you want a car like this? Absolutely!
@@drsrsv8884 I believe that was a quote Gary made about a Countach in another episode.

First reading your comment…I started to get pissed …lol😮 absolutely..yup
Peter has the best job EVER! Miss the TV show though...

GT 40 and the entirety of the history and all those involved is remarkable
Simply one of the most beautiful cars ever!
Wow, Thanks for sharing that experience with everyone….and actually “test”driving it! That sound 🔥
I’m glad that your success has enabled you to keep cars like this going .
I'm very surprised the Legendary Motorcar channel only has 70,000 subscribers. This was very well produced! This is some high quality work.
Congrats on the purchase, a truly historic race car for the road.
I seen this about ten yrs ago on tv. It was probably in about 2012 or so,I imagine he still has it.
Simply amazing and thanks for the great content!!!
Do we need a car like this? Nobody needs a car like this. Do we want a car like this! Absolutely! ❤
Best car video in years. Hits on all cylinders… some I didn’t know about. Art stops Time. Thank you.
Congrats on the purchase. We'll deserved and going to be well preserved. One of the most iconic cars in history. It's design is still exotic. A timeless thing of beauty.
The Borrani's never need to come off again. What a stunner!
Personally I like the bronze wheels
Love the TV show they used to have long ago. Really cool insight on restoration.

Wish my 1967 Mustang sounded like that, what a beautiful sound.
I love these cars too, they're work's of art
I agree! I would really like to try it one day.
You got a deal peter.. I saw it in person, its sublime. Love the original ones.. cheers guys.. maybe ill see you at mecum..

All I'll say is 1071 !!
Wow!
Congratulations Peter 👍🏻🇺🇸
I’ll take a replica over a real one for driving, but the investment factor is king!
I played golf at a course in Milton (Condo Now)Back in 2003.Behind me was Tom and his young son getting in 9 holes.Told him i loved his show.R.I.P. Tom😢
Gee, I miss this show so much. Great to see you again.
So right about the spoked wheels. It is also weird how wrong they looked in the track footage. Dress shoes on a basketball court.
I believe they were right hand drive because the 40 was based on the a Lola race car and originally designed and built by Ford UK.
True.
From the office decor, it looks like Harley has something of a military aviation background.
WOW JUST WOW!!!
Did You Need this GT40?
Heck NO
BUT YOU BOUGHT A WOW CAR, AWESOME!!!
I like how the closed caption says music when he revs it.
Music to us 🤝
Title of the video should read 'Buying a real GT40 for the first time'.... lol
Still one of the best car shows ever produced. Love it.
🙏
I remember when this aired a while back. Epic for sure! I can't believe the GT40s aren't worth more given their pedigree.
I've got a set of the FORD press docs for the GT40 MK1 and MK2... it was in with a ton of old SCCA and Porsche docs from the 60's I acquired from the widow of an old SCCA racer.
It's worth alotmore now
EXCELLENT content!
Peter and Gary
Hope to see this at the GT40 event in July.
Nice video…
Jeff
Only 3 million? I'll take two.
I would have thought two million would have bought this. This was quite a while ago.
Peter, been looking forward to this video.
That should be a 6 million plus car. Private sales are all over price wise. But I'd hang on to that one. Harley is a great wheel man too..I know you wanted to offer him 2.8 ish.. 🤭 wires look great.. Gary needs to drive it too..
So amazing!! Videos are great!
That MV Augusta tho...
I rode one on a Demo ride day at a local dealership that had them briefly.
Don’t know why but I feel incredibly patriotic watching this episode 🫡🇺🇸 way to go Blue Oval. Peter nice purchase.
Miss Tom!
Peter, I grew up watching your show❤ do you have any books or videos on the ins and outs of the business for someone that would like to follow your foot steps? Do I need a car like this 😂
Congratulations! $3 million dollars well spent. You got a piece of automotive history, that I believe one day will dethrone the Italians and Germans.
Shifter on the right of driver sweet
Simply.....Amazing!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤
I saw this video years ago?!
Harley - we’re not going to zing it. Seconds later gets on it!
As soon as he got on it I was ok who do I pay! That thing sounds so damn good! Well I just heard the price it's a bit high then I would want to pay but 2.5 who be about right unless you just had to have it and then 3 mill it is!

Definitely a good call to put the Borrani wires back on...just looks so right.
"First On Race Day" congrats!
This edited like a cable TV show from the 90's
3 million dollar Time Machine.
Beautiful ...
Beautiful
Very cool
Super! Peter, I want to see actually drive the car. We know you know how to drive now put the hammer down please.
Congratulations! Looks much better with the wire wheels. What is the mileage on it?
As I remember this is from your show quite a while ago (miss it by the way). Do you still own the car or have you turned it?
Wicked car!

Beautiful and absolutely awesome I love it
"Klute Money" has no boundaries 💰💯
I have to have a GT40 in my life... I'm going to have one.
Okay not a real one, I plan to drive mine pretty much every day. Seriously I do... But I just have to have one.
Anyone know what the story is with the glass over the carb intakes?
My initial thought was to keep anything from inadvertently falling down into the carbs, while still letting air get in. Made from lexan so you can still see the beauties.
Which motor and year is it?
Boy this was a long time ago.
Congrats
three million dollars ? that's over the limit

Is it wrong that a beautiful GT 40 arouses?
Greatest car ever imo. 😎👌

A bargain, I suppose, compared to a Ferrari GTO
This is a Replica Correct??
No. it's a real one, hence the price.
@@grahambell4298 Ok my bad I didn’t watch it yet thx,What was the price??

Wire wheels do not look race car.
They sure were, until the early 60s !!

Well some are still actively raced in historic racing, so not all owners wrap them in cotton wool.
@@grahambell4298 Goodwood for a great example....even the prangs add to their legitimacy in my humble opinion !!
