The provenance of P/1065 is bolstered by a thoroughly documented record of continuous ownership, one that has been officially corroborated by both the Shelby Registry and the GT40 Enthusiasts Club. Furthermore, this car has been featured in a number of books and magazine articles about the GT40 model, including Ford GT40 by John S. Allen, GT40: An Individual History and Race Record by Ronnie Spain, the September 1978 issue of Autocar and the Spring 1984 issue of Supercar Classics. P/1065 was also photographed extensively for the substantial entry on the GT40 featured in Ultimate Automobiles by Alberto Martinez and Jose Rosinski.

Over the last year, this car has also undergone a substantial restoration that has included a rebuild of the engine, transmission, brakes and suspension, and a repaint in its original color. This work, conducted by Driver Source Fine Motor Cars of Houston, Texas, incurred roughly $100,000 in receipts, and ensures that the next owner is afforded the full potential of this car’s breathtaking performance and arresting presentation. Offered in its original color of Azure Blue without racing stripes, featuring Halibrand wheels and still displaying a remarkably low mileage of just under 3,200 miles, this GT40 Mk I is a heart-stopping example of the exhilarating American sports car that captivated the world. It is accompanied by full documentation of its recent restoration work, including receipts, parts orders, and numerous photographs. Indisputably rare, beautifully finished and historically rich, P/1065 is a striking testament to the early road-going counterpoint that such production cars offered to the model’s celebrated racing achievements. It would easily qualify as the crown jewel of most collections and would make a peerless addition to any assemblage of 1960s sports cars.
