2 Ford GT40

-

The legend of the GT40 is so strong that there have even been Hollywood films made about it. Enzo Ferrari’s snub to the Blue Oval set a chain of events in motion that culminated in the GT40.

The seven-litre Mk2 version of the car claimed Le Mans in 1966 with Chris Amon and Bruce McLaren at the wheel and then again in 1967 with Dan Gurney and AJ Foyt at the controls. John Wyer’s team added another two wins in 1968 and 1969 with the 4.9-litre Mk1 version. The legend was set in stone.
