grafitti1 ◊ 2007-01-14 07:16	The car featured in this movie was a replica by MDA, and another one was supplied in the movie with bullet holes, as said from the link here: http://www.mdagt40.com/media.htm I must say myself that the replica featured is a well made one, however. P.S. I am sorry if I may have upset anyone by revealing the fact that the GT40 featured isn't a real one.

The producer wanted a Gulf Racing colored GT40 as part of the dramatic opening scene. The car was specially prepared to look like the Le Mans winning GT40 in 1968 - 69, complete with bullet holes! If that's right, the undamaged car seen here is a real Ford GT40, which is then replaced by the MDA replica when it has to appear damaged. -- Last edit: 2007-01-14 12:55:00

This might mean that the udamaaged car seen here is a real Ford GT40, which is then replaced by the MDA replica when it has to appear damaged. i'm agree with you. in the making of, 'The Ice Race'. They are not ony showing the aston and the jag. but the car at beginning and they are saiy that there where a few cars. a ford gt 40 and a replica. but they haven't told what kind of replica it was. because they did't want to lose a Old Ford GT40 -- Last edit: 2007-01-16 17:34:00
Grafitti1 ◊ 2007-01-14 20:04	I think everyone may be right about the real car for a scene and a replica w/ bullet holes for another. I'm sorry if I made any error (which I myself highly doubt, since MDA is one of the best GT40 replica manufacturers worldwide!).

Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2008-10-22 19:48	As I noted above, it seems that the undamaged GT40 is a genuine Ford, not a replica.
