The Big and Tall version of the sportster is now here so all you John Wayne's can finally have your share of fun on the road with the rest of us 'shrimps'. If there was anything John Wayne ever demanded from his ride, it was a lot of horsepower and this car can definitely deliver that. The RCR-40 sportster is the real man's version of a kit car replica and it, not only has some power but many other things to bring to the racing table.
The RCR Company, which was first started by a family of racing enthusiasts, has now introduced the next generation of GT40 replicas and the manufacturers can certainly boast that they have the most authentic replica body ever produced along with a superb project for any builder. This speedster has the exact look of its early muse with both aluminum monocoque chassis and front and rear chassis extensions. Although it can accommodate a big driver up to six foot, four inches tall, there are also a lot of other benefits here. First off, it can accommodate any Chevy or Ford V8 engine and these certainly have some big and tall qualities themselves. The RCR Company supplies mounts for each of these options as well as a ton of other accessories on the car. This isn't just a replica, this is also the spitting image of the Ford GT racer from the 60's with extremely high performance capacity to boot.
The RCR-40 comes in both an MK1 and an MK2 kit and the high horsepower capabilities along with the available options makes it an attractive project to any build enthusiast. The kit comes with everything you need including the chassis and all the accessories. You can relax because you won't need to search the old junkyards every Saturday and Sunday looking for parts. John Wayne never liked spending his time scavenging around for anything except maybe a bit more horsepower and you certainly won't need that with this car. The RC-40 certainly has everything a big man could dream of so the John Wayne's of the sportster world can feel right at home behind the wheel of this beautiful cavalry of horses.
