The car is a MKI #1060 purchased from CS in 68'. It started out RED with stipes and lots of racing decals but was painted white to tone it down a bit in an attempt to get it licensed. It came with MKII "none functional" break intakes stuck on the back. The car spent it's first year touring dealer show rooms pretending to be a MKII :smash. We were told the dealers wanted a MKII due to the 1 2 3 66' win and for the most part couldn't tell the difference.
The first trip to the DMV it failed due to ground height. The second failed due to headlights to low. The third trip... one wiper blade. The forth Pops got smart and went there at 4:55 PM on Friday. The clerk asked " Ford GT Mark I is that like a Mach I"?
My father "uhhhhh..... yes it is"
The clerk "well then I don't need to go outside and look at it"
STAMP
The clerk "Approved, goodnight".
