Wikipedia's image for the Ford P68, a group 6 car with a Ford-Cosworth DFV. Reverse google image search is awesome.

And, compared to the Ford GT, a horrible failure.

It's an Alan Mann Racing Ltd (writen in front of the rear wheel arch) Ford F3L.

At the end of the 1967 season the FIA redrew the rules for sports car racing . Engine capacity was limited to 3 litres for the lightest, most advanced Group 6 sports prototype class, while a new 5 litre Group 4 Sports Car class [1] was introduced for vehicles of which at least 50 examples had been built. Ford 's American headquarters organisation withdrew from sports car racing at the end of 1967, [2] leaving those teams committed to running the aging GT40 without factory support. While some teams, such as JWA , decided to go down the Group 4 Sports Car route and began work on updating the GT40, Alan Mann Racing decided to build a brand new prototype car around Ford Europe 's recently introduced 3.0L DFV V8 Formula One engine.

Wikipedia had this. The Ford F3L was also known as the P68 and 3L GT.

Rain soaked the electronics and knocked it out of a race one time.

Think about that for a second.

Modern prototype sports cars might be safer, faster, more efficient but they are nowhere near as beautiful as the classics!
