We missed this Porter Press stand at Goodwood but it's good to see John's update.

Has anyone heard anything more on the release of these books?
I have emailed Porter Press and am waiting on a response.

[This is the message I wrote this morning, then forget to press send]

The first book (by Ronnie) is now available for pre-order.

It is printed; it is being bound. After a long wait, Volume 1 really is a reality, with Volumes 2 and 3 well advanced. The orders are flowing in. To remind you, Volume 1 is limited to 750 copies worldwide and is the definitive collective history of GT40s - full stop.

As to our customers in the USA, we have no time to ship them in time for Christmas so 100 copies will be flown out to the SNG Group in New Hampshire.

Volume 1 - 576 pages, 13.4 x 9.6in / 340 x 245mm, over 250,000 words, 1200 images, every single car - 130+. Limited Edition - 750 copies - £325.
Collector’s Edition - 100 copies, plus an Owner’s Edition for current and past owners - more information as soon as possible.

In the US, it's $420 (plus shipping).
Since I placed my order, the US price has gone up by $1 (my guess it's doing live currency conversion).

Ultimate Ford GT40 – The Definitive History (Volume 1)

Volume 1, written by Ronnie Spain, provides chassis records and photos for every GT40 built, including the prototypes, roadsters, production GT40s and Mark IIs, Mark IIIs, Alan Mann cars, Mirages, J-cars and Mark IVs, in addition to details of seven original unnumbered ‘spare’ chassis.
