| FORD GT40 (1967) CAR HISTORYCar review on FORD GT40Ford wanted to
buy Ferrari in 1963, and when they failed, they directed their might towards
the race track. In conjunction with Lola, they turned the Lola GT into
a prototype Ford GT, then in 1964 came out with the GT40, so called because
it stood just 40 inches (1016 mm) tall. The cars weren't successful and
failed to finish in any races. But with huge resources, the GT40 programme
continued with Carroll Shelby at the helm, and in 1965 production of the
road-going car started for homologation, and a GT40 won its first race.
In 1966 three GT40s fitted with 427 ci (6.9-litre) big-block engines took
Le Mans with a 1-2-3 win, beating Ferrari, to the delight of Ford bosses.
After this, the cars used the smaller 289 ci (4.7-litre) V8s, and a sheet
steel semi-monocoque with separate subframes for the rear engine and gearbox.
Deep sills (for fuel cells) meant the whole chassis was extremely stiff.
