The Corporate Colours 2

F166 - Gallaher Silver



Gallaher commissoned Ford to build 8 XR GT’s painted colour F166, Gallaher Silver, and used them for promotion work. At the time Gallaher was sponsor of the 500 mile race at Mount Panorama, Bathurst; Ford were keen to enter their new XR GT model in the race; and Gallaher had a new range of cigarettes to promote, the GT King Size Filter. Hence, they all came together, to great effect, on the 1st of October, 1967.
