Default Ford GT

This was at Wickstrom Ford in Barrington. The color actually looked better in person, but I still wasn't crazy about it.

That is the Gulf Oil paint scheme they used when the GT40 raced at Le Mans in the sixties. Not the prettiest thing, but it gives me wood.

They did have a bunch of photos of the original there. It was cool to compare the two

An original in that paint scheme must be worth a fortune!!!

This is the only engine shot I got. The glare from the lights sucked

That color reminds me of that Herbie movie where he falls in love with the French ladies car I think the paint scheme was the same
