Ford J7

FORD J MkIV Chassis J7

After completion and a quick shakedown J7 was sent to Le Mans entered By Holman & Moody. It was unfortunately eliminated in an accident due to brake problems after the first half of the race. The wreck was sent back to Kar Kraft who did a temporary repair so the car could be used as a show car repainted in red like J6 the winner of Le Mans. In 1970 it was sold in its unrepaired condition, changed hands a few times and was finally restored to its Le Mans color before being donated to the Carol Shelby museum.
