Only one of the F1 GTs was black - '54F1GT'. The GT prototype '56XPGT' was Silverstone Green - the same color as XP5. The GT in those photos is '58F1GT' the final customer GT that was built.

QV500.com - F1 GT longtail page

Here's one of the few shots of 56XPGT where you can actually tell that it is green:



Thanks to chernobyl for the screengrab btw.

All three are the same car - that's just the very early wheel design that was chosen for the longtail road cars and was later replaced by the ones you see in tvrfreak's photos.

The car in that photo is green by the way, and so is the one behind it.
