VIDEO: Ford GT promotional film from 1964
Check out this 1964 promotional film for the then-new Ford GT (aka GT40). It features period footage of three cars -- GT/102 (#10), GT/103 (#11) and GT/104 (#12) -- at the '64 Le Mans 24 Hour race.
The original film is posted courtesy of the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) Library and Research Center in Hershey PA.

it is amazing how things change over time. What a great video! I thought the reference to the Mustang was funny.... The quality looked like a home video but it was made for one of the largest companies in the world....

I recall using the GT40 as an advertising/marketing campaign in a class in college...right down to print/ and TV posterboards...great memories...I recall the tarket was a campaign to sell 1000 units in year1966.

Sure, I heard that story! How you used a neat car to pass a marketing class. But you never owned a GT40! Only some POS CSX3327 and some wannabe AC MK IV!
I on the other hand have owned several GT40s as well as the remains of thirty-three twenty-six!!!! (of course I had to sell them all right away to pay off the note) but that does not count!!!!!! |
