I was at the Peterson recently but the Ford GTs and GT40 were no longer there. Instead the entire tour was about 1900-1930s cars which I don’t care about 😂 no more vault visits for us. Matter of fact there were no real sports cars race cars or muscle cars, because the guy spent the e tore your talking about 1920s 30s and 40s cars 🤦♂️ horrible, complete waste of money and time. The only 2 cool cars there were on the upper floor Mclaren P1 and Ferrari La Ferrari
I don’t think so , try saying that to ZR1 that always roast that FORD whatever Gen is C6 or C7 and soon C8 will be 😂😂 so please dream well before life shocks you to wake when C8 ZR1 came out .
Hagerty has become the defacto car enthusiasts channel on TH-cam, period. Between all the shows that you are producing there can't be enough. We need more! Cheers to whomever has the brains to produce the ongoing content here as well as with Cammisa. Hats off to you all!
Literally, the best car TH-cam channel. The production is at another level, and the informations they give are 100% accurate. Unlike other Car channels. (Donut media,wink wink)
Gotta love all the GT's. I wish Magnus would just talk in his normal voice when narrating. His narration voice is one for telling kids scary stories, not for automotive narration.
Love Magnus! But someone needs to talk to him about not using the same annotation pattern for every sentence no matter what he’s reading from the script 😅
Man this guy reminds me so much about my Peepaw, everytime he's on screen I just need to watch what he has to offer. He was just as much of a nut for old cars like him. He had a beautiful Bel Air, A 73 Corvette, 74 Camaro an Og Fastback mustang, a Shelby Cobra replica, an 87 911 Carrera, A W220 S class, an E39 M5 and an E46 M3. He daily drove an Altima, you couldn't even tell by the looks he owned all those cars, unfortunately he passed last year due to Corona and we had to sell all the cars😭, only the M5 remains in the family and it's with my uncle who drives it on a weekly basis. I love you to heart Old man. I miss those cars a hella lot.
If you are watching this video, you would enjoy spending a day, or more, at the Peterson Museum in Los Angeles, where these cars came from. It is simply amazing.
Three amazing Ford Supercars from the Gen 1 race car to the Gen 2 street version, raced by privateers in Europe to the current Gen 3 ultra beautiful current Ford GT previously raced by Ford Performance and Chip Ganassi Racing. Three extremely special Ford Super Cars at this one location. Different vehicles that accomplished the same goals. Go fast and with gen 1 & 3 win races in some of the most beautiful Supercars ever built. Thanks for the fantastic history of the Ford GT and the ride along with your Great video. Also hats off to the late Carol Shelby for his brilliance in helping develope the Ford GT program leading to Ford's dominance at Lemans in the 60s. For 2022. Ford announced that 1350 Ford GTs were scheduled to be built. As of February 2022. Only 250 copies remain before production closes. .
I, finally, realized a life long dream. - Last year in the Spring, I found a pristine GT350 at a local Mercedes dealership. - From the time I opened the door and climbed in. I knew it was MADE for me. - Say what you want about Chevrolet being this or that? - But I'll take this FORD Shelby over a Corvette, all day long. (Odd because now? - I have both 17 Grand Sport) - While the Grand Sport is truly phenomenal on all accounts - the Shelby GT350 just scratches that overall itch for me. - From it's total heart thumping sound, to it's raw driving experience, it's produces a smile even on the worst days! - Thank you for your efforts making this video and sharing it with us! - GREATLY appreciated. - Aesir - NH USA.
You know I watch a lot of automotive blog channels , with all kinds of personalities and hosts . But no one delivers a story like you Magnus ! So you keep doing your thing , and we will definitely keep enjoying the show… Great job
The GT presents so much better in person. Its just nutty: so low and industrially built, not a dainty road car it looks positively scary and very substantial, just menacing. Its gorgeous like nothing you see on the road.
The second generation of the gt40.....the ford gt actually WAS raced. It just wasn't a factory program. I can't remember the guys name who went racing with it but, he had an engineer who went through every nut and bolt of the car in order to maximize its potential. I'm also not sure how well he did but, I have to give him a round of applause for going for it in a car that wasn't sponsored by the ford factory. Side note=I'm a die hard ford guy and own a 65 mustang coupe with the 289 V8 and auto transmission on the floor. The factory 2 barrel carb was gummed up when I got it so I replaced it with a Holley 2 barrel that flowed better and made more power anyway. Later, I bought an 89 mustang gt "5.0" also known as the fox body mustang and I will say that I LOVE these cars. They are lightweight, cheap(or at least they used to be before the chip shortage), and modifications for them are everywhere.
Not the might of the Ford motor company but the genius of Shelby and Ken Miles made te GT40 the ultimate race car in its day. If it was the ford executives they would have never won.
Yes it's extremely similar to the GT40 vs Ferrari. Where the underdog with no chance but with money gets the English do design a fantastic racing car to win.
I saw the MKIII in person years ago at the Museum and have a 20x30in picture of it that I hung in my garage. I get to see it daily. ;) Beautiful and so awesome you let it out to play!
Magnus, I just know you are a music fan. I've got a couple of years on you, enough to remember swinging London in the '60s. The music scene there was red hot. Among England's premier jazz-rock keyboard players was a wild man named Brian Auger. I bring him up because he owned a GT40 and used to roar around London in it at all hours. His don't-give-a-damn attitude reminded my of Shelby, Miles, and the others who got this legendary car off the ground. Thank you for bringing this magnificent can, and its constructors, back to life for a new generation,
The epic music throughout the video is pretty annoying but holy hell is this car a legend. All generations are stunningly beautiful and somehow don’t look like anonymous super cars like McLarens. I don’t think enough non-car people know about the GT, but if they did, they might think differently of Ford.
What a pity Magnus. You had the opportunity to set the record straight after the Ford V Ferrari film. The GT40s early development story began in Slough, UK.
Eric Broadley's Lola GT was the early basis for the car. While it was a pioneering design, the Ford GT 40 Mk. I was a completely different car it was so revised. Even then, it was the Mk. III and especially the Mk. IV which dominated LeMans.
What a great video, I'm blown away by the sheer love of cars and the wonderful style of filming it, and some next level editing and narration. I am impressed, and that don't happen often these days..
Camilo Pardo created a masterpiece with the gen 2. All of those years being involved with the GT platform paid off in the form of perfection. Well done Mr. Pardo.. well done indeed.
I'm curious why these historical cars are usually on "old rubber'" or tires that are hardly roadworthy anymore? Is this because the correct tires are no longer produced? Is it something that can actually detract from the value of a working car?
Its likely that new rubber for the wheel sizes is just unobtainium. You could pay a fortune to get some made, but how often is a 1 of 4 5 million dollar car going to be driven to the point where new rubber is something you're going to want?
Every time I drove my 2016 GT350, somehow when I went to my Ford dealer, there would be a customer's Gen 2 Silver GT. All I wanted to do was just borrow it for maybe a quick trip to Daytona and back for the excitement it just threw at you will it sat still. Still broken hearted, it never happened!
I'm not sure who the narrator is but I think he did a great job. He definitely can drive and he is definitely qualified. As far as the English accent I'm pretty sure that's why he ends most of his sentences with an up accent at the end. That doesn't bother me I have friends from England that you the same thing. Thank you for sharing such a great video. Looking forward to your next. I also have two cars that have Hagerty Insurance. One is my 1959 Ford Thunderbird hardtop and the other one is my 2010 Mustang
Such a great tribute and review to my dream car. I did get to atleast sit and see it on Woodward. Also, the Henry Ford museum has a nice exhibit on it. Driving it would be an honor. Always dream lol.
The blue-white-red color scheme in 19:53 looks stunning on the GT40 MKIII, better than one plain color and it emphasizes the proportions very well. Love the 2nd Gen GT in a deep black, too.
/Drive network used to be great with Big Muscle and Tuned. Motor trend was great with head to head roadkill and high quality reviews. Then they hit a paywall. Now truly this is the best content online we are hooked! I'm in disbelief Surely something this good can't be free forever 🥺
These videos are always great, but this one is especially good, because I keep getting this image of Rob Zombie tooling around in these cars when Magnus is driving 😂❤
What a dream come true. I have lusted after the GT40 for years. Considered building a recreation car. I too think the one to have is the 100 year anniversary car. Should have picked one up when they were affordable.
I always wondered to Herbert von Karajan's GT40 Mark III. I became aware of this car because he had a small prang with it in the Alps during his possession of it. I think he was on a road trip with his wife. It is good to see it in the Petersen museum being cared for properly. I have to concur that I would probably also choose the Ford GTII for a street car.
We're so glad to see our MKIII with all generations!
We hope there'll be a discount for car enthusiasts. These days only rich guys like Magnus Walker can afford to visit Petersen 😞
Thanks for letting it out of the stables for all of us 🙏

The 05 GT still looks modern. A timeless design.

I had the pleasure of seeing 2 in person. The owner of the dealership that I worked at owned one and then one rolled by me in my schools parking lot.

With Carmudgeon also coming to Hagerty it seems they are taking over the whole automotive journalism scene. RIP Mototrend.
Petrolicious used to be so butterfly inducing back in the day but has lost its way!
Great video. Just an editing note, the constant, epic music is absolutely not needed when the cars’ soundtrack is so good.
Just made this comment. In the very least, turn it down. I can barely hear Magnus sometimes.

I wish Jason was here instead.
It is his genuine voice. Love or leave it.
@@machtschnell7452 It's clearly a put on voice. Listen to how he has normal conversations with people. He doesn't use that voice for conversation.
Right?!
🤣👍
I would go for the 2nd gen. too.
I'll go for all 3 but the second gen is really a special car tho
I really wish this was Jason review
You and me both buddy.
Yep ... magnus is a legend ... but he's not a presenter
The way this guy ends every sentence… is a high note😅
Love Magnus! But someone needs to talk to him about not using the same annotation pattern for every sentence no matter what he’s reading from the script 😅
He's trying to be Top Gear soooo bad.

The Chief Designer of the 2000s Ford GT seems like a chill guy to hang out with.
Yeah maybe but he likes to tell everyone how good he is at his job
When are you guys replacing Magnus?

Man, moment, machine and the deep pockets of FoMoCo.
They need to make Mazda versus Mercedes, the 787B story. The 25th anniversary of their Le Mans win is in just a couple years
Yes it's extremely similar to the GT40 vs Ferrari. Where the underdog with no chance but with money gets the English do design a fantastic racing car to win.

Love to see Magnus presenting this
Awesome video. Perfectly done. 2006 sounds fantastic. My pick as well.
Crazy how the designer Camilo said the ford gt or gt40 is similar to the Miura. The gt40 was an inspiration for the Moira’s design.
What a great video, I'm blown away by the sheer love of cars and the wonderful style of filming it, and some next level editing and narration.

Basic tyre sizes of this period are available, so a risk hacking it around a race track, probably without insurance...
Quite a pleasant surprise. Thanks.
The MK II is one of the most beautiful cars ever made imo.
The Ford GT40 is beautiful
The Mangusta is a beautiful car as well, but the GT40 is more aggressive and stylish. Sort of similar in appearance.
All three cats have insanely beautiful shapes n lines.
Excellent chapter in the series
I flinched so hard at 17:39
Haha, me too! But IRL, our cars were staggered, look at the wheel shadows. Fortunately they are not right next to each other.
This is and incredible video series Hagerty doing it right.

Amazing footage, story and presentation. This video was something special and engaging to watch.
Damn that GT90 was so nice, I loved racing that in Need for Speed 2 :D.
Thank you hagerty for this "National Automotive" high quality videos.
Thank you Hagerty and all those that went into making this episode. I agree with the ending statement to this episode… Dreams make life worth living.
I rewatched Ford vs Ferrari and read up on Ford GT40 and GT yesterday and I got a fresh video to continue :D
Since going public, the Hagerty marketing must have got a boost! I can’t wait for more!!
What a dream come true. I have lusted after the GT40 for years. Considered building a recreation car. I too think the one to have is the 100 year anniversary car. Should have picked one up when they were affordable.
I love all these Walker Videos
Great Episode, Thanks Magnus :)
one of the best videos by Magnus! CheeRS my friend.
Wow what a video, its so good.
Started out the Ford road trip with 2/3rds of the cars operable... I'd say you beat the odds ; )
Great cars… Magnus Walker is def not my thing, but the GT40’s and the Ford GT made it a worthwhile watch.
Good old mr shelby and miles might be happy and proud of their work. Smiling at everyone who drivea their cars from above.
Hats off fellas!
I recognize this track instantly because I always spin out on the final corner of lap 1. Always coming in too hot on the first lap lol
I always wondered to Herbert von Karajan's GT40 Mark III. I became aware of this car because he had a small prang with it in the Alps during his possession of it. I think he was on a road trip with his wife. It is good to see it in the Petersen museum being cared for properly.
I have to concur that I would probably also choose the Ford GTII for a street car.
Absolutely phenomenal! ... Couldn't have done a better job, thank you!
You should do a race between the keep track hawk and the tesla plaid
They're all awesome but that Mark 3 is gorgeous.😍
Alot better of a channel than Motortrend
Chris Harris kept talking about how great the chassis was too!
Magnus is magic 🤗👍🏼
Outstanding production. Thank you so much to bring us that masterpiece Video!
Excellent informative videos, especially on the GT40s. Hagerty is a very good worthy " motor" channel to watch.
