    What an incredible and eclectic group of photos! Great find Yale.

    A couple in there of a very young Mark Donohue sitting on his Elva Courier and behind the wheel of the T70 Lola.

    Man, there are just some really cool pictures on that site. Great picture of the Mustangs in the process of being converted to GT 350s, with the GT40 in the foreground testing new front ducting. This must be just after Shelby moved to the site next to LA International Airport? Chuck?

    Yeah Jim,

    I believe Shelby moved most of his operation from Venice to Englewood at the airport at the very beginning of '65..... Great pic... GREAT site

    I was there at Road America, Elkart Lake Wisconsin, summer of 1973. The looks on people's faces really depicted reactions to the car, the drive, the team and most importantly its performance. The reactions were like the car was from the future .... incredible!

    Great shots! Incredible how many of those cars I can recall from my youth. Does this long-tail look extra long?
