Ford GT40 Mk1 Chassis P 1067
The particularity of 1067 is that it is one of three Mk1 road cars to have been sold from the factory with a Mk2 rear hood and is the only one which still has it. The car was sold in December 1966 in a light metallic blue. It changed hands a few times and was raced in club events for a while in the early '70s wearing a yellow and black livery. Its owner could not afford the maintenance cost and stored it in a garage for decades, buried under a pile of junk. It was finally sold and is undergoing a full restoration to its original glory.
