The McLaren M6A was a Group 7 prototype race car that Bruce McLaren designed and developed, and his Bruce McLaren Motor Racing team built for the 1967 Can-Am season. It replaced the M1B cars of 1966, and its Chevrolet powered design earned the team its first of several Can-Am championships. It was the first McLaren with a monocoque chassis, with bodywork shaped for downforce, a fuel injection system developed by the team, and Goodyear tyres in place of Firestone. Its orange paint became the McLaren Orange identity. After the M8A replaced it, McLaren and Trojan-Tauranac Racing developed the customer M6B, and the M6 name was reused for the closed-cockpit M6GT Le Mans sports car.
