Hi John, I don't have handy pic. of everything, but, here are a few..........

A Lola T163,....using a clear lexan body from Truescale,.......I did cut out some grill openings and added a few bits and pieces.
It was taken on a dull day, with the colour being a much more vibrant orange,....looks a bit red in the pics.
Ahha,...just found a better pic. of the colour,.......the light can sure change things...........
At the time this was built, I was playing around with "Hybrid" chassis designs (plastic pods and wire/brass chassis plates),....I have reverted to maily brass/wire chassis.
Another from the back of the Grid is this Strombecker McKee Mk10,....again some bodywork done, bits and pieces made/added.
I do not have a pic. of this cars' chassis but it is a slightly modified 1/32 AMT brass job.
The chassis for the Ferrai 612 (front row of grid),....powered by a "sample" FC-050 motor,.....a great running car !!
Below is the chassis for the Aurora McLaren M12 (also front row),........considering the age of the real car, and early CanAm in general, I wanted a relatively low tech chassis (inline ) with gobs of torque !!
And a Fly Chevron (back of grid),.......this one won the the "Pan America" proxy a few years back, and, I humbly submit , by a mile
