Ex-Essex Wire 1965 Ford GT40 #1010

One hundred years of Ford! Where do you start? There are far too many choices…flat-head racers, Ford-Cosworth DFV, wedge-engine NASCAR, World Rally Escorts, Lotus-Cortinas…and dozens of other fabulous race and rally cars.

Though the choice is hard, the legend of the GT40 makes it a prime candidate to celebrate Ford’s incredibly long involvement in motorsport, and the GT40 is the best example of how Ford decided to enter and stay on the international stage.
