This car took part in the Pre-1972 Le Mans Cars Race at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1997.
It's a 1968 Ford F3L - also known as a Ford P68 - which was designed by Len Bailey and built by Alan Mann Racing for them to compete in the Group 6 prototype class in the 1968 season. The car has a 2,993cc V8 Ford Cosworth DFV engine but proved to be very unreliable, not finishing in any of the races in which it took part in 1968. In 1997 the car was owned by David Piper and was driven at Silverstone by Andrew Fletcher.
