New Vintage Motorsport showcases forgotten gems – and celebrates a lost star

Featuring the Ford Mustang GTP in the latest Vintage Motorsport issue was always our plan, and now it feels even more fitting after the passing of its designer, Bob Riley.

During our photoshoot, I sent a picture of the car to Bobby Rahal, who raced it in the past. His response was, “Great car, just needs a great engine.” You’ll discover more about this in the story.

3 Dog Garage has restored the Mustang GTP to its former glory, and it now runs better and more reliably than ever before, giving fans a chance to appreciate its racing history from 1983-’84.

If you have the opportunity to see and hear the Mustang GTP in person, don’t miss it. Take a moment to imagine what it was like for legendary drivers like Rahal, Klaus Ludwig, and others to navigate this powerful machine.

In this issue’s “Forgotten Gems” section, we honor the Mustang GTP and other overlooked racing talents like Davy Jones, whose potential should be recognized more widely.
