Legendary Motorcar just posted the acquistion of P/1037 on their Youtube page today.  Beautiful car.

Fascination got to me.... I had to find more about the original video clips from 1966 in the Legendary video.... Found it.  Enjoy!

98SVT WOAH! I'm so happy i asked that question, mind blowing history! I had to read it a few times to piece it all together 😂

Great idea contacting the guy who had to stare at them for hours to bend the fenders to fit (Jim Murietta). I heard him mention he did the fender flares on these cars in many videos & interviews, never thought asking him about the tires.

Outstanding info already, thanks a lot. I will try to reach Jim and report back.

Bernie Kretzschmar is the one you should really talk to about how the R-Models were built.

I will gladly adopt them.  They can live at my house rent free.   

Bring them to Portland Swap Meet in a few weeks.

Good solid book.  Some stains and finger prints from being used in the shop; but still very functional and full of great information.   Binding is strong, but does have some outer tears.

$100 shipped in USA

Send me a PM if you are interested.  Thank you

I don't see it on the home page under "The History" main section.   Also not in my settings showing the list of boards.

This sounds like a perfect post for Randy Gillis to help with (RIP).

Check out where Randy used to work, RaceTec Pistons.  A cool shot of him racing his GT350 on the home page!
