Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for the nice introduction and pictures. I didn't know the MKI 062 was for sale. Maybe it was a private sale.
The previous owner and I talked on many occasions in the past. I hope the family kept the black '67 Shelby GT350.

I'll send a follow up PM shortly on 062.

I like the photo of your SAAC MK1. I don't know much about them so thanks for peaking my curiosity, cool car.

Thanks for posting, and welcome to SAAC. Great cars and history !

In your two photos of the start of a race, is that the Partida de Las Seis Horas Peruanas, 1966 ? (spelling ?) The image of cars on

 track is that also the same event ?

I have the one photo, but not the one showing the drivers running to the cars, thank you !

Peru?

You would be quite surprised the number of HiPo Ford/Shelby cars that are in Peru.
Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

Of the 30 production MKI's built (plus 6 prototypes), 5 were shipped to Peru, all exported at the same time.
They were the first 1992 models built.

All 5 are still in Peru.
