We take a look at what the Ford Motor company was offering if someone wanted to buy an incredibly special, factory built car that was ready to take to a drag strip or a stock car track to race and also happened to be completely street legal. Did Ford actually make such unicorn cars that the general public could buy? Yes, but with a caveat; The cars were mostly limited in production numbers and were considered experimental or homologation compliant cars. Simply put; Homologation cars were cars that the manufacturer was required to build in limited quantities and sell to the public that represented the version of the car that would compete in a racing event or series.
