This neat photo of a '66 GT350 in London was just shared with me.
It was noted as parked near the Crystal Palace for the start of the 'Daily Express' race.

Interesting car, 66 or 65?

Obviously has the 66 quarter windows and brake scoops but looks to have a 65 gauge pod, grille center piece, and 65 style side stripes.

Looks like the owner also, maybe, did the Trans Am mod to the front valance for cooling

The picture is actually around the web since 2016.
Shows a swiss licence plate from Sankt Gallen.
Could be one that was sold at the London Racing Show by FAV themselves or to a customer from Performance Cars Ltd./Geneve.
