No this is not my car, but a copy of my car back in the 60s which I ran at MGR. Larry Smith built this not knowing what he was actually recreating. Funny how things work that way. You can only guess how I felt when I first saw it. I mean the color,stance,number and even the interior were to close for me to be comfortable with . Only thing missing was the side pipes exiting in front of the rear wheel.... !now you want to talk about -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- memories

Johnny, that is such an excellent picture. I sit here and look at the car and look at you and realize how wonderful our lives have been because of racing and because we raced each other once upon a time a re-discovered a friendship after 40 years. Thanks for posting.

What a change! It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm quite surprised. It may take me awhile to figure it our but first look it's really great.
