Responsibility details are not available.
A red shade from the Number Five brand with the LM abbreviation in its name, which refers to Le Mans. The subject is the Ford GT40, a sports prototype designed from the start for one type of race.
The name GT40 came from the height of the car: the body measured only forty inches, so that it would offer as little air resistance as possible on the long straights. Beneath it sat an American V8 and a load-bearing structure of steel sheet, replaced on the later versions by a lighter design. Ford won the twenty-four hours four times in a row with this car and in 1966 took the first three places at the finish, a result the brand still recalls today. Alongside the works cars, GT40s also started in the colors of private stables from Italy, Switzerland and Britain, and among their schemes a deep red without an orange cast was not missing either.
The cabin sits low between raised fender wings and the doors reach into the roof, as otherwise the crew would not get into the car. The LM abbreviation in the name refers to the race rather than to a particular edition or a single car, so take the shade as a red for this whole family of prototypes.
