Carroll Shelby

Carroll Shelby a Texan chicken farmer had a passion for racing sports cars. Eventually he hit the big time, winning the 1959 Le Mans 24-hours in an Aston Martin. When his racing career was cut short because of heart problems he hit upon this idea of mating a big American Ford V8 shoe-horned into a English AC chassis and the legend was born - the Shelby Cobra. The Cobra's brick-like aerodynamics were improved with the Daytona Coupe and powered by the big block 427 V8 secured Shelby the 1965 world championship for GT cars.

Enzio Ferrari

The Ferrari prancing horse emblem was given to Enzio Ferrari by the Countess Baracca who saw in him a kindred spirit of her First World War fighter pilot son killed in the conflict. The emblem adorns every Ferrari perhaps the greatest name in both race and road cars. The very first Ferrari was announced in late1946, and was first raced in1947. The first road car car to bear the name Ferrari did not appear until Enzio Anselmo Ferrari was 47 years old. Shown here is the achingly beautiful 1967 Ferrari 412 P. Its V12 4-litre engine gave it a top speed of 190 mph. Just four of these spectacular prototypes were built and each was entrusted to Ferrari's most successful private teams of which one was North American Racing Team. The yellow 412P Ecurie Belge painted here being another.

Le Mans

All hail the GT40, the most feted Ford of them all. When Ford was jilted at the alter by Ferrari, Henry Ford II and Lee Iacocca implemented the Total Performance programme vowing to vanquish the red cars at the biggest race in the world: Le Mans. Launched in 1963 by 1965 the Ford GT40 swept Ferrari aside starting with Daytona, then Sebring fell followed by Le Mans. Ford had achieved its aim: the blue oval had kicked Ferrari where it hurt. Then it continued to give Ferrari's finest - and the rest - a good drubbing for three more years. Shown here is the epic start in 1967 to the Le Mans 24 Hours as the Ford GT40s lead the way!
