The 2005 Ford GTX1 roadster - Let the drooling begin.

The allure of the roadster is undeniable. “To me, the open-air model of a sports car is its highest evolution,” says Kip Ewing, the Ford SVT engineering supervisor who dreamed up 2005 GTX1.

The idea for the GTX1, which debuts this week at the 2005 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas, came while Ewing was working with the team at Ford on the launch of the Ford GT. Further design inspiration came from the classic 1966 Ford GTX1 roadster, a Sebring winner. Then, he let his own design instincts take over. “I always ask myself, ‘What would I do if this were my car?’” says Ewing. “Luckily, Ford was willing to let me find out.”

After months of design work, Ewing was given a green light to build the prototype. He turned to Mark Gerisch of Genaddi Design Group, a Master Coachbuilder whose shop is located in Green Bay.

During the four months that the prototype was being built, Ewing gave up nearly every weekend to travel the 500 miles from Detroit to Genaddi Design Group’s headquarters so he could provide hands on assistance and design expertise. “I could never have finished this project without the understanding and support of my wife Emily and son Lucas."

We don't know what's next for Kip's drawing board, or what other projects are ready for he and Mark Gerisch of Genaddi Design Group, but if this is any indication I am sure it will be worth waiting for.

For now, we’ll just savor the 2005 GTX1. And wish there was one sitting in our driveway.

The upgrade of your Ford GT to a GTX1 is $38,000 USD, additional options include but are not limited to wheels and tires, custom paint, interior trim package with Sparco silver grommet seats, Brembo two piece rotors with Brembo logo calipers, adjustable coil over shocks, Borla exhaust and headers, engine performance upgrades, carbon fiber splitter diffuser with side spats.
Pricing details and a more comprehensive list of options with further details are forthcoming.
