page 8 reply #116...a slight larger photo posted.

HA! Yea that does look like someone's laundry drying out on the cab bumper.

Rich, here's one from the I believe the '69 Bridgehampton Trans-Am. The old man is having a think, and that could be Revson or Kwech ?

The storage lockers are open, and there's a third car inside.

Nice find ... in color too. Thanks for posting

CS in a suit and his Stetson...
I'm guessing that is Kwech. He DNF'd according to my notes.
The sign on the door is laughable. I doubt that worked very well.

Interesting that the station wagon is a Mercury.  Wonder if it was a rental (and no Fords were available) given the internal rivalry between the Ford and Mercury divisions.

CS sitting there immediately reminded of him sitting on the wall talking to KM on the box front of this Revell model in my collection 😎

Just because i liked colour pics i would like to ad this one from the first GT350 Race on 14.02.1965 Green Valley
in Backround we see this F250 with that roof reck thing

Unfortanally the Bus in the backround is not the same as seen on this Carter Ave. one



and just for some fun i want to add this pics also ...

on another Thread (Carroll Selby Pics) wee some Caravans on the Backround...



on my magazin research i found this pic in Road and Track September 1965 Issue Le Mans Story



looks like this old pics from some wild west pionierwagons standing together to fight some
attack from outside ... (in this case from Ferrari)

Wonder why the rear bumper was left on the R model?  Usually bumpers are taken off for weight reduction.

002 was probably the only one like that.  All the later R models were delivered w/out rear bumpers.

Found this on Instagramm, no more infos on the pic..

but fur sure it is Shelby Hauler Nr. 1

Nice find Steve...I need to correct this 1963 cab license plate to '6308 CC' on the list early in this thread.
I have no idea where that was taken.


I like the small, yet nice overhead photo of the pioneer days wagon caravan at Le Mans, from a few posts up.

Great photo of 5R002 with the Ford F-series pickup. It was taken at GVR (Green Valley Raceway) in Texas at the debut race Feb 2nd 1965!

Thanks for sharing these.
