[DeTomaso] Best History of the Ford GT40 / GT

[Kirby Schrader]

Go to Amazon and click on books.
Then search for GT40

Trevor Legate's book is very good.
Ford GT40: Production and Racing History, Individual Chassis
Records<http://www.amazon.com/Ford-GT40-Production-History-Individual/dp/1903706114/ref=sr_1_14?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1299696761&sr=1-14>

John Allen's book is good, but solely GT40
The Ford that Beat Ferrari: A Racing History of the
GT40<http://www.amazon.com/Ford-that-Beat-Ferrari-History/dp/1844251136/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1299696737&sr=1-1>

There are a bunch of them.

I have the two above plus Ronnie Spain's book on each individual chassis
number.
Nothing really about the Ford GT though...

FWIW,
Kirby
