GT40 won Le Mans with Chev parts ☺

Seing as you boys and girls are finding Naked Women difficult, I thought you may need another teaser to exercise your minds:

The 1967 Le Mans winning GT40 had some Chev parts on it.

What were these parts? Bonus points if you know why they were fitted.

1960 Chevy Corvair tail lights because of the light weight.

thanx for the question. I read up on the racing history of the GT40. Very interesting. Also how Ford tried to hide the winning J5 car.
