That is fucking hilarious. Definitely one of my new favourite episodes of UH just for being a very different reasoning of being included than any other car in the series. This NEEDS more exposure.
I feel like they were inspired by ford’s gt40 and a gt1 car style. Ford thought they had did so good that they made a less gr3 looking version, used the gt40 lights, put metal around them for the cool like, and called it the Ford gt. I think this is one of the craziest inspirational story
When i saw this car i was like.. Ohh is probably a highly modified Ford GT GT3 variant. Back in the day when FIA GT1 was still a thing But this was unexpected like some sort of doppelganger of the Ford GT 10 years earlier. Maybe Camilo Pardo (the lead first gen Ford GT designer) really saw in this thing the way to revive the GT or is jist a coincidence but who knows. Incredible addition to the series! Just a few away for the big 100
*Certainly the French also knows how 2 create pretty good looking cars not counting Bugatti and Venturi (thoze are pretty obvious) , this one , Genty Automobile , Prato Automobiles , Ligier , Helem*
I wouldnt be entirely surprised if the GT was drawn up before this and just didnt get concepted or produced until later, and maybe these designs were found or maybe that designer had something to do with this
