I've search the forum for more information on these two cars, but found little other than the general GT40 thread below which predominantly deals with issues of the GT40's origins.

Interestingly it seems that both cars never raced either before or after Le Mans :

My questions are :
* What was the thinking behind the heavily modified bodywork ?
* Who designed it ?
* Did the design contribute to the cars failures (presumably not ?) ?
* Why wasn't this bodywork (or part thereof) ever seen again at Le Mans on subsequent GT40's from 1966 - 1969 ?
* Why were these cars never raced again after Le Mans?
There also seems relatively few pictures of these cars (perhaps because they didn't last that long), so would also be interested to see other pictures.
