A few pictures of GT#103

Hello,

I will try to post some pictures of GT40's here. I have many, and I need to go through them and select good ones for scanning. I will post two I have scanned now.

This first picture was taken in the mid 1980's at a vintage race in the US.

 

Taken at the GT40 reunion at Watkins Glen.

Welcome. I take it you're Bill's son?

Yes, I found out about this site just recently. It is great to see this many people together enjoying the love of a wonderful car.

I look forward to contributing whenever possible.

Here are three more pictures of GT/103. They were taken at the Ford Racing Festival in 2001.

GT/103 has an interesting history. It was the first GT40 to win a race (and when it won, it became the first GT40 to finish a race). Bill Wonder bought the car in the 60s, so he has the record for longest ownership of a GT40.

Behind the car, in blue denim, is Bill Wonder.

Despite the rain, Bill started up the engine so the fans could hear it run.
