2019 Amelia Island Concours offered attendees & racing enthusiasts (especially of the GT40 persuasion) a rare opportunity: 

Six time LeMans winner(!) Jacky Ickx was re-united with a bunch of his former race cars.  Two of the cars were Gulf GT40P/1075 (1968/69 LeMans winner) and prototype Gulf GT40P/1049 (1967 Daytona class winner).  Iconic driver and race cars.

Interesting. GT40's huh? I remember getting my chachka's torn off by the team manager back in 68 by reffering to the cars as GT40s. "THEY ARE GULFS, GET THE F OUT OF HERE! SECURITY!!!!"   :o

Not a nice fellow at all.
