GT Mark II
Lee Holman,
President of Holman Automotive, Inc. and Holman Moody Inc., is
producing new 1966 specification GT Mark II LeMans race cars.
These cars are built at the Holman shops in Charlotte, NC using
the original Ford GT Mark II blueprints, specifications, and
base chassis that Holman Moody used to build their GT Mark
IIs.
Ever since the Ford GT Mark II won LeMans more than 30 years
ago, Holman Moody has been asked if an original Mark II could
be remanufactured. Due to high tooling costs for such a small
number of cars, Holman Moody only repaired or restored the few
existing Mark IIs. Now, with the interest in vintage racing at
an all time high and the number of inquires growing substantially,
Lee Holman and a number of the original Ford LeMans team members
decided to build a limited production of authentic racing LeMans
Mark IIs.
These cars
will have the advantage of the Holman Moody teams' vast racing
experience, blueprints, race reports, and paper work from the
Ford LeMans program. The Holman cars will be built just as they
were raced, using original Mark II body molds, chassis from original
tooling, Kar Kraft style transaxle, new 427 Ford dry sump engines,
and a number of the original spare parts.
The parts that make this a true Mark II will all be just as raced
so the owner will not only have the sound and the look, but also
the feel of a true LeMans racing machine. Holman Automotive will
offer the car as a Mark II A or Mark II B.
One of the most important aspects of this project is the people
that Mr. Holman has pulled together to build these new Mark II
race cars. These are the workers that helped Ford build and race
the original LeMans GT, Mark IIs, and Mark IVs. They will
assure that these new Mark IIs will be true to original design
and as great as the Mark IIs that made history.
