P1002 is the first competition GT40 sold to a private team. It was entered by Fred English in 1965 and 66 with a light blue livery. For the '66 season it received a new standard bonnet and was registered for road use with the famous "FEL IC" number plate. After changing hands a couple of times it was sold to David Prophet. Resprayed in metallic grey with a gold stripe, it was modified progressively in 1967/68 to look like Paul Hawkins AMGT2 lightweight GT40. After being in an accident it's has been restored as a standard Mk1 by its present owner.
