 Three of the world's most legendary Ford GT40s - including the car
that famously won Le Mans back-to-back in 1968 and 1969 - will reunite
as part of the celebrations of the 50th anniversary of the GT40 at next
year's Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance.
Once paired almost exclusively with each other for Ford's world
championship efforts, P/1074 and P/1075 combined to win at least five
different races in 1968, including that year's Le Mans, rescheduled from
June to September, with Pedro Rodriguez and Lucien Bianchi driving
P/1075. Jacky Ickx typically piloted P/1075 and indeed he drove it with
Jackie Oliver nine months later to win the 1969 Le Mans in what many
consider one of the closest finishes in Le Mans history.
