As much ambition as Ford invested in its Le Mans commitment, there was little interest in the new Can-Am series at the end of the sixties. Consequently, it was left to the private racing teams to develop a winning shell for the Ford engines. The result was four years of failure. This article tells the story of Can-Am racing cars with Ford engines, which was marked by setbacks, and shows a lot of historical footage.
Between 1965 and 1969, Lola built around 100 T70 sports cars for racing. Because there was also an interest in road-going super sports cars, Eric Broadley of Lola worked with Franco Sbarro, who created a total of around a dozen T70 variants for use on public roads. This report describes the history of the Lola T70 and the Sbarro models and shows one of the Sbarro variants in many pictures.
