Backstory from Hot Rod Jan 05:
He Makes Us All Look Like Chumps
Sometimes all you can do is shake your head in stunned admiration when you see a project like Jim Dunham's scratch-built Mark I GT40 replica. A Ford vehicle-packaging engineer by day, Jim has been at work since 1997 handbuilding an exact duplicate of Ford's legendary supercar in his garage from the ground up. "I decided to build one for myself from scratch since I sure could never afford to buy an original," he says. After measuring four original GT40s and gaining access to another chassis that was under restoration, Jim drew up his own full-scale plans using CAD software, built wooden body bucks, and began forming the monocoque body tub, which is now about 90 percent complete, from sheetmetal just like the originals. He's also building the running gear and body panels in his home garage, including handforming the roof and other body panels using a hammer and dolly and an English wheel. "I try to tell guys anyone can do this; it's not tough," Jim says. Jim hopes to have the car running with a mechanically injected small-block Ford by next year and he intends to run it in open-track and vintage racing events. Unbelievable.
