Elford initially made his name in rallying, largely in Triumph and Ford machinery, and then joined Porsche. He won the 1967 European Rally Championship before an incredible run of success in early 1968.
Elford won the Monte Carlo Rally with co-driver David Stone in a 911T. Then, just a week later, he took the Daytona 24 Hours, one of five drivers to share the victorious long-tailed 907.
