1968 Ford GT40

The Hollywood star most associated with high-speed driving, McQueen insisted the race scenes in Le Mans be as authentic as possible. He chose the GT40 as a camera car, cutting off its roof and installing a seat for a cameraman outside the car, to film while hurtling down the track at 150 miles per hour.
Even before McQueen got his hands on the GT40, the car had built up an impressive reputation. After failing to buy Ferrari, Henry Ford II commissioned a car he hoped would win the grueling 24 Hours of the Le Mans endurance race. The GT40 exceeded expectations, coming in first four consecutive times, from 1966-9.
After the gold and powder blue car was rendered nearly uncontrollable by McQueen's conversion, it was owned by a series of collectors, and restored to its original condition in the 1970s and 80s. The buyer remains anonymous.
