John,
You are correct and I believe it was some Frenchman who bought one of the cars and won with the 289 in it. I think they won two years in a row with the 289s. Somewhere I have some papers from the Harra's Collection that has repos of the newspaper articles about GT-40s winning 4 years in a row. They were great cars and still are. Wish I could afford one of them. They did let me sit in the one at Harra's as I was over there so much.
