Never before seen images of the 1973 Daytona 24 Hours

by Michael Satterfield 07/222/2013

One of our readers by the name of Monty was lucky enough to attend the 1973 Daytona 24 hours and he sent us scans of his old Polaroids from the race. We spent some time color-correcting them, but these images have never been published before. It’s a cool look into the history of racing, it includes the Gulf Racing Mirage team, classic Porsches, and many more iconic race cars. The Yellow MKIV Ford GT was parked in the paddock for sale at the time for $15,000.

Thank you Monty for sharing these images with us.
