>
> In Michael Ware's column, Lost & Found (pg 28), he describes a 1962

> Lemans that John Horsman (part of JW Automotive Engineering, the Ford GT
> developers)
> took to Des O'Dell to have a Tiger bulkhead and transmission tunnel
> fitted.
> According to the story, a Ford GT spec 289 was installed and and the car

> used as a test mule for engine modifications during the Ford GT racing
> program.
> Concurrently, it was also Horsman's daily driver.

> Again according to the article, two UK 'enthusiasts" are planning its
