yes i think it was. But don't know as I barely old enough to walk at that time. A nice friend of mine gave it to me for wall art knowing my passion for GT40s and Ford.

Angelo. Thanks for sharing.

I just ordered a copy of Life Magazine from June 25, 1965 off eBay where the seller confirmed this ad is in it.

There are plenty still available on eBay with a tiger on the cover. Life was larger than most magazines today, so it’s a good size - with two pages ~10.5” x ~13.5” and I was told the ad is reasonably close to the middle which bodes well for preservation.

Love the Ford GT (not 40) on the lower stripe, as well.

That's a nice one!
Found a few treasured wall hangers on Ebay too.

Appreciate making us aware of this advert. I received a copy of the magazine with this and it presently is being framed for the garage. Ken Miles is on the left, and is is that Phil Remington as well? Trying to find a Ford tech trained for the GT in the Nashville/midSouth area; anyone know of one?
