12 Hours of Sebring Race, March 1964

01

Artifact Overview

Dave Friedman has captured and preserved auto racing history through his photography. His collection of works documents key races, vehicles, drivers, and teams. In March 1964, Ferrari -- as expected -- topped the prototype class at the 12 Hours of Sebring road race. The surprise, however, was the performance of the Carroll Shelby Cobras. They outclassed Ferrari in the GT class and swept the top three spots.
