Roger Penske ordered this Lightweight Spyder Lola, one of five special Mark IIIb Spyders ever built, and had it delivered in time for Mark Donohue to campaign in the 1967 Can-Am season. Donohue raced this car throughout the 1967 season finishing 4th overall that year in the Can-Am standings.

Shelby Racing acquired the car through Ford and used it for testing Ford Motors. Shelby planned to field a Can-Am team for 1968 and needed to know the best engines for the McLarens they planned to race. Peter Revson put the car on the pole and set the track record at a 1968 USRRC race in Kent, Washington using an aluminum Ford 427. Unfortunately, the car retired after the 2nd lap with gearbox problems.

Ronnie Bucknum and George Follmer drove this car during the 1968 Can-Am season for Charlie and Kerry Agapiou's short-lived Can-Am team. After several early DNF's the team finished 7th overall in points during the 1968 Can-Am season including a 2nd place at Las Vegas.
