Saw the 1075 chassis at a car show in Tucson. They also brought out a ton of other gulf sponsored face cars, but the gt40 was roped off

I was amazed that when at Goodwood we could get up close and personal, I really felt it should have been roped off to be honest, such an important part of motorsport history.

This is one of my favorite Gt40's (very close second behind P/1074) i've always found it amusing that the Ford museum bought one of the post Shelby light weight John Wyer cars for their collection..... P/1075 and P/1074 where both ran by JWR as privateers (Ford never had sponsor livery's on the works cars and Gulf was John Wyers sponsor going on to back all his 917 win as well ) and the story goes this was John Wyer thumbing his nose at Shelby's claim the British couldn't fix the Gt40.

Yes this is my favourite car in the whole world, one for it's looks but also it's incredible back story, for anyone who hasn't read it the Autobiography of P1075 is a brilliant read 👍
