History records the inspiring story of how the Ford GT40 hit the track in 1966 and went on to secure four consecutive victories for the Blue Oval. In 1967 Ford teamed up with lubricant giant Gulf to create what was to become arguably the most loved racing car livery of all time, the iconic light blue and orange. The colours have certainly stood the test of time, with an ever-growing army of passionate Gulf fans and more than half a century later, the Gulf Oil paint scheme that was worn by both the 1968 and 1969 winning Ford GT40 is more evocative than ever.
