In this dated photo at Castle Rock, Colo. we see Bob Holbert in CSX2127 leading Bob Bondurant in 2129 and Dave MacDonald in 2138:

And speaking of Hayward Ford, here's the advertisement they had in this issue. I believe they used a stock SAI photo of CSX2012:

[THE WHEEL]

This cover of THE WHEEL has a very nice photo of Dick Carter & Hayward Ford's 5019 on it that I've never seen before.

It also shows a pin striping detail on the hood that I wonder how many of us have ever known about:   

I have a steel scattershield for a small block Ford for sale. It was installed in a Boss 302 that I had purchased, and it appears brand new except for the visible evidence that it had actually been bolted in. I removed it in the 1980's and it's been in my attic since then.

I can't find any stampings or part numbers on it, but I am convinced it's a Lakewood #15200 as shown in this comparison photo. It's exact in every detail to the Lakewood advertisement.

$300. Please PM me or contact via email if interested - Thanks.

On my NOS wheel covers, my eyes see:

"A" as flat black,
"B" as semi-flat charcoal,
"C" as flat Argent silver:

We all know about the 1969 Shelby wheel insert glue/rivet recall, but I just found this mention of another wheel problem in the September 1969 issue of CAR LIFE on page 13, and found it quite interesting.

I had not known about the lug nut issue too. Is that the same, or a different recall?

All very good observations ^^^^ about this photo!

Dennis - why is there no month/year sticker on that plate?

Thanks,

Brian - look what Shelby signed near my car at SAAC 11 in 1986:

[knockout!]

That photo is a knockout!

Thanks Guys - George and I are still trying to deal with the amount of the loss. If Rod hadn't saved the day by recovering a portion of GWC, I thought I would never see the first post at the start of it all in April 2014 ever again. I have saved a screen shot of that now, and have used it to show others that it did indeed exist.

At one time...

My buddy Kevin's stunning 1969 BOSS 302 in The Boss Shrine:

I have this info in my files about the car in this photo:

This photo was taken in Dec 1966, and may show the first owner, Raleigh Dunson of Des Moines, IA
