Recent publicity on the new Ford GT has brought the GT40 to the attention of a whole new generation - and the GT40 Enthusiasts club is enjoying an upsurge of interest in its activities.  The original Ford GT series of the 1960s, generally known as the GT40, is unarguably both one of the most beautiful sports racers in history as well as being one of the most successful.  It is hardly surprising that it has maintained a near fanatical following and subsequently spawned a thriving replica market.

The GT40 Enthusiasts club is run for anyone who is passionate about the GT40. We even have original GT40's, and virtually every type of replica ever produced.  We have members from all corners of the planet and welcome new ones from every continent and country where GT40's are loved and respected.

The club itself is dedicated to every aspect relating to the GT40.  Original cars, replicas, racing events, social events, scale models, literature - you name it.  We also produce a much sought after quarterly magazine, Fortyfication, which runs to some 30 or more pages of news, reviews, technical articles and other interesting content.

We organise regular events and meetings, and many members meet up at the famous Le Mans pilgrimage.  Naturally this historic course has special significance for GT40 lovers and has taken on a renaissance with the amazing biennial Le Mans Classic event.

So take a look around our web site, and if you like what you see, why not join!

The club offers a great quarterly magazine, Fortyfication, and events throughout the year. We are regular attendees at all major car events, and often have a stand. Over the years, members have been invited to run their cars in the Le Mans parade, and regularly exhibit at Ford events.


Across the UK, we have regional groups that meet up socially on a monthly basis, and we welcome the founding of new groups in other regions and countries.  We try to keep membership at an affordable level, so please go ahead and join our ever growing club.

Regional meetings

Monthly meetings are held in several areas of the country and you can be guaranteed a warm welcome, whether currently a club member or not.  These meetings are informal so drop by for a chat about GT40s and cars in general.

We've only just begun
