An exceptional limited-edition lithograph by acclaimed American automotive artist Danny Day, featuring the legendary Gurney-Weslake Eagle #36 Formula One race car, one of the most historically significant American-built Grand Prix automobiles.
Originally produced in 2004, this exclusive edition was limited to just 50 pieces, each individually autographed by Dan Gurney (1931–2018) and personally signed and numbered by artist Danny Day.
What makes this artwork particularly significant is that Gurney was not simply the driver of the Eagle—he was also the founder of the team responsible for its development and success.
Introduced in 1966 by All American Racers (AAR), the racing organization founded by Dan Gurney and Carroll Shelby, the Eagle represented an ambitious American challenge to Europe’s established Formula One manufacturers.
Designed by Len Terry and powered by the distinctive Weslake V12 engine, the Eagle became one of the most admired Grand Prix cars of its era, celebrated for its elegant styling and innovative engineering.
The car achieved its greatest triumph at the 1967 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps, where Gurney drove his Eagle to a historic Formula One victory.
This achievement made Gurney the first American driver to win a Formula One World Championship Grand Prix in an American-built car.
Danny Day’s detailed rendering captures the Eagle’s distinctive low-profile bodywork, exposed suspension, and unmistakable racing character, preserving an extraordinary chapter of American motorsports history.
Dan Gurney (1931–2018) was one of the most versatile and influential figures in international motorsports.
His extraordinary racing career included:
Four Formula One World Championship Grand Prix victories
Winner of the 1967 Belgian Grand Prix in his own Eagle race car
Winner of the 1967 24 Hours of Le Mans alongside A.J. Foyt in a Ford GT40 Mk IV
Five NASCAR Cup Series victories at Riverside International Raceway
Founder of All American Racers and creator of the celebrated Eagle racing cars
Beyond his accomplishments as a driver, Gurney made lasting contributions to race car design, engineering, and motorsports innovation.
His authentic signature on this limited edition creates a direct connection to the remarkable automobile he helped develop and drove to victory.
