Ford GT40.Winner of the Sebring 12hr. Race.
Gran Sport Corvette.GMs attempt to beat Ford in endurance racing.

I also loved the colors.I forgot in my description that theGT40 also won the 24hours of LeMams in 1966.
Beautiful cars nicely shot
Great shots
So, did you bid on either?
I love cars. I also enjoy watching the Barrett-Jackson (and Mecum) auctions. So, I'm curious if the Ford GT 40 you photographed was the actual winner of Sebring, or a replica? Quick research reveals that 105 replicas of that car were made. If Barrett-Jackson claim it's the actual race winner, I have no reason to doubt them (and that would certainly make the bidding higher), so curious minds...

Nice shots of those beauties!
Excellent set of my two all time favorite cars.
