1966 Lola-Chevrolet T70 Spyder
As you might expect, given his Goodwood hero status, there was a considerable tribute to the late and great John Surtees. Still the only man to win world championships on two and four wheels, Surtees was a regular at the Festival of Speed and there were nine cars from his career to pay homage the former champion.
Among the F1 cars and motor bikes was this, his Lola Chevrolet T70 Spyder. The 5.9-litre V8 made Surtees the first ever Cam-Am champion in 1966, giving him four round wins.
