FORD VS. FERRARI: THE LE MANS COMMITTEE – VICTORY IN 1966 - @FordMotorCompany

THE ORIGINS OF THE FORD GT40 AND THE VICTORY AT LE MANS IN 1966. One of the first changes made for the 1966 racing season was the establishment of the Le Mans Committee, which was comprised of the heads of a number of Ford divisions involved, including the Engine and Foundry, General Parts, and also expanded the role of the Dearborn Motorsports and Styling and Engineering teams. By doing so, the…

Carroll Shelby was born #OnThisDay in 1923 in Leesburg, Texas. As a driver, Shelby won the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans (with Roy Salvadori). As a constructor, he returned to the Circuit de la Sarthe to shepherd the Ford GT40 victory in 1966 and 1967. With his big grin and black cowboy hat, Shelby brought a touch of Texan good ol' boy to every deal he made... and he made quite a few deals. According to his autobiography, "[W]inning the Twenty-four Hours was probably the greatest thrill I ever got out of racing. I can think of plenty of other races that carry their quota of thrills for the winner, but when you win this one it kind of gives you license to go out and tell people you're good, and that often helps get some other deals together." Some of those deals gave the world the Shelby Mustang and the Cobra. In 1965, the Shelby American Cobra won the International Championship for GT Manufacturers. Not too bad for guy who didn't start driving professionally until he was 29 years old! All photos from Revs Digital Library. #gt40 #cobra #shelbyamerican #lemans #revsinstitute

The Three Ravens

There were three rauens sat on a tree,

downe a downe, hay downe, hay downe

There were three rauens sat on a tree,

with a downe,

There were three rauens sat on a tree,

They were as blacke as they might be.

With a downe, derrie, derrie, derrie, downe, downe.

Art by rubyblossom

The one of them said to his mate,

Where shall we our breakfast take?

Downe in yonder greene field,

There lies a Knight slain under his shield,

His hounds they lie downe at his feete,

So well they can their Master keepe,

His Hawkes they flie so eagerly,

There's no fowle dare him come nie

Art: "The Three Ravens" by Edward Frederick Brewtnall

Downe there comes a fallow Doe,

As great with yong as she might goe,

She lift up his bloudy head,

And kist his wounds that were so red,

She got him up upon her backe,

And carried him to earthen lake,

She buried him before the prime,

She was dead her self ere euen-song time.

God send euery gentleman,

Such haukes, such hounds, and such a Leman.

Illustration by G. Howell-Baker (1901)

A rather well-known English folk-ballad, dating back to at least the 16th century and compiled by Thomas Ravenscroft – who else? – in 1611. Alas, the three poor corvids are deprived of their meal, since the slain knight’s pregnant paramour, the leman, buries his remains before the ravens can dine. And dies. And it is open for debate if the authors of the gloomy piece actually wish “death” to every gentleman or just someone to mourn them properly when they are gathered unto their ancestors.

And here is a rather charming rendition of the song by "The Black Country Three" from 1966

Having witnessed the winning GT40 drive on the roads and track this year during Car Week I have now been fortunate enough to have seen almost every significant Ford GT. From the 1966 winning trio, the winning 67 and 68 cars, the prototype roadsters and the champion 2016 car, there is no shortage of legendary cars among the run of the most iconic American racer of all time! @fordperformance @ford ______________________________________ #carweek #monterey #california #pebblebeach #pebblebeachconcours #weathertechraceway #rolexmotorsportsreunion #fordgt #fordgt40 #gt40 #gt40mkii #gt40mkiv #lemans #lemans24 #100thanniversary #blakejphoto (at Monterey, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cms2Xg9uzgc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Exoto Sauber C9 #69

Exoto Sauber C9 #69 1966 Exoto Ford GT40 Mk II Color: Standox Suzuka Sun   Hochdetailliertes Modell aus Druckguss im Maßstab 1:18 Diese klassische Rennstrecke, wegen ihrer Kurven auch „Big Dipper“ genannt, wurde 1976 eröffnet. Mario Andretti gewann dort den ersten Grand Prix mit einem Lotus V8 Cosworth. Das Strahlen der goldenen Sonne über Suzuka, Japans berühmtester Rennstrecke, wurde im neuen Effektlack der Standox Exclusive Line eingefangen. Auf den ersten Blick strahlt der neue Lack die Farbe von reinem Gold aus. Bei genauerem Hinsehen offenbart sich schnell die Vielfalt der goldenen Sonne. In einem Moment blendet es wie das silbrige Licht der Mittagssonne, und im nächsten Moment vertieft sich „Suzuka Sun“ in das rötliche Gold des Sonnenuntergangs, bevor es einen Hauch von seltenem und kostbarem grünlichem Gold zeigt. Alles abhängig natürlich vom Blickwinkel und der Helligkeit. Diese faszinierende Interpretation des goldenen Farbtons der Sonne gelingt Standox durch den Einsatz spezieller Pigmente. Der irisierende Effekt des neuen Lacks entsteht durch Lichtreflexion. #exoto #autoart #tecnomodel #F1 #lemans #diecast #diecaster #diecastcars #diecastcollector #diecastphotography #modelcars #giftforhim #giftfordad #Christmas #bbr #frontiart #cmc #luxury #collectorsitem Lesen Sie den ganzen Artikel

This Is What Everyone Forgot About The 1966 Le Mans - Arun Singh Pundir @HotCars

The Matt Damon, Christian Bale 2019 hit, Ford v Ferrari (also titled Le Mans ’66 in some countries), made one thing very clear and memorable. The year 1966 marked an important change in racing history when a hitherto mass-passenger-carmaker managed to produce a racecar that beat the competition and emerged the winner. The car was the GT40, the main people behind its success were Henry Ford II,…

1967 pontiac tempest

It shared sheet metal with the Oldsmobile F-85, the first-generation Tempest had several features that differentiated it from the other compact GM cars. Road & Track praised the Tempest as "exceptionally roomy" and "one of the very best utility cars since the Ford Model A." In hindsight, DeLorean admitted that the Tempest was "less than successful," adding, "there was no mechanical problem, but the car rattled so loudly that it sounded like it was carrying half-a-trunkful of rolling rocks." The Tempest was Motor Trend magazine's 1961 Car of the Year. His objective was for the new model to be more than just an ordinary compact car. DeLorean, Pontiac's chief engineer and general manager, went to work on a car that would meld components GM already produced. The division wanted to produce a clone of the Corvair, but instead GM gave Pontiac the lead to develop a new car in an interdivisional program coded named "X-100." John Z. The Tempest was a decision by the Pontiac division to enter the compact car market following the success of the Chevrolet Corvair. South Gate Assembly South Gate, California In Canada, Pontiac also marketed a rebadged version of the compact L-body Chevrolet Corsica under the name Tempest from 1987 to 1991. The GTO was subsequently split off as its own model line in 1966. By 1964 the Tempest, Tempest Custom and Lemans are separate models in the new GM A-body platform. The line offered the optional LeMans trim upgrade, beginning with a few 1961 LeMans coupes and adding a performance aspect in 1962. An innovative design, it shared the new unibody Y platform, GM's first, with the Buick Special/ Skylark and Oldsmobile F-85/ Cutlass, and featured the "Trophy-4" four-cylinder engine with a flexible drive shaft to a two-speed rear-mounted transaxle automatic transmission. The Tempest was introduced as an entry-level compact in October 1960 at the Paris Auto Show for the 1961 model year. The Pontiac Tempest is an automobile that was produced by Pontiac from 1960 to 1970, and again from 1987 to 1991.
