At 1:11, there is a picture of car # 148. This was the winning car in 1966 at Targa Florio, driven by Mairesse & Muller. The car is a Porsche 906 (chassis 906-128). Perhaps this slideshow contains a mix of 65 and 66 photos.
HI! I suppose you're referring to the GT40 roadster trim,in light green livery,privately owned and raced by an english gentleman driver Sir J.W.(if I correctly recall)-
The Ferrari P2's, the Dino, the 8 cylinder Porsche"'dune buggy" car and the open topped GT-40 all are from the 1965 race down to the individual car numbers. There is a fine color video of the 1965 race on Youtube,
Also see: "World Sports Car Championship-1965" online;
The music is from Windham Hill WT-1036 "Live at Montreux, The Darol Anger / Barbara Higbie Quintet" recorded at the Montreux Jazz Festival, Switzerland 1985.

I'm sorry but this is the 1965 Race, not 1966.
