The Ford GT 40 Mark IV just about has to be the iconic American race car. This car has power, style, a winning history. The list of drivers is just unbelievable and I am not even going to try an list any of them. This paricular car is owned and driven by Tom Malloy of California. Mr Malloy apparently has a very nice colection. At this race he brought the Gurney Eagle GTP and this GT 40 Mk IV. Last year he also brought a MacLaren M6. Oh ya in his trailer this year he had the Dan Gurney F-1 Eagle, a Mercedes Benz 300 SL and a Kurtis 500 sports car. I understand that at the Monteray Classics this year he had an Indy Offy roadster. This man is a collector of the first order, but most important of all he drives his cars and apparently enjoys driving them. Note the stone chips on the front of the GT 40 Mk IV.
