Ford J11 & J12

Ford J  Chassis J11 & J12

The last two spare chassis built later numbered J11 & J12 were kept unused for some time. They were sold in the 1970s. Both being owned at one time by the same owner who started but didn't finish the completion of these cars as MkIVs. Sold again the cars changed hands several times and both are today finally finished and with a private collector: J11 in a white livery with Le Mans style stripes and J12 in red as a look alike of the winner of Le Mans 1967 with some slight differences.

FORD J  GR7A  Chassis J10

J10 was sold as a bare chassis (along with J9) to Charlie Agapiou for racing in the Can Am series. J10 was completed by its new owner as a Can Am racer and competed in the 1969 and 70 seasons without much success. In 1970 it badly crashed and only the chassis was saved. It was sold years later and was rebuilt by its new owner as a MkIV.
