Henry Ford's descendants own 40% of voting rights in the motor company he founded in 1903, and the family are still involved in the running of the automaker, including Henry Ford's great-grandson William Clay Ford Jr., the company's executive chairman, and great-great-grandson Henry Ford III, who is global marketing manager for Ford Performance.

Great video. I originally thought it was a replica because of the exterior door handles and roll up windows. All the others I have looked at had the tiny door handles and sliding windows (lexan, I believe). Makes sense after hearing that the second owner had the car modified to make it more civilized.

I got a kick out of this statement when talking about the restoration: "...... insuring that the original bodywork was preserved throughout the restoration." Guessing that means the "original" body work that was replaced after the 1963 wreck. In his defense, I believe that only ONE of the original 36 cars still wears ALL of the original hand made alloy panels. They were race cars after all. There is at least one car that carries ZERO original exterior sheet metal.

There is not one die stamped piece of metal on these cars. You can line up three or four and see minor differences, including the hood slope from one to another.

Panther Pink was no longer an RPO extra cost color in 1971. It became a special order paint color.
