Good pics, Ron. Just a side note. The AC entry was shipped to the coast of France where Phil Remington and Charles Hurlock's (owner of AC) son Derrick, proceeded to drive the car the entire distance to the track at Le Mans--a distance of 150 miles or so. So much for Cobra caravan concept. Talk about tight budgets.
.....And then, after the race, it was driven back to the AC Factory One of the last Cars ever to do that.
