Phillip, great stuff on the Moore Cougars (nice find !) here's a photo of the moffat Cougar at the last race of the '67 season at Kent. The writing on the front fender looks like the one in your shot ?

Thanks Mike!

The decal placement ("Allan Moffat Racing LTD" moved forward from my photo from Crow's Landing below and a Dayco decal added) in the picture you posted of the Moffat Cougar matches that Cougar in the back of Bud's shop in the photo I posted.

It was always believed that the green and gold Cougar was one of the Bud Moore Cougars re-painted and that Bud was involved.

Moffat qualified fourth for the race at Crow's Landing but stuffed his Cougar into a hay bale on the eighth lap. You can see the red hood in this pic of him racing Milt Minter's (driven by Allen Grant) Mustang. Grant finished fourth.

Titus led most of the way and won - Revson finished second in a BME Cougar.

Yes.
Why is one wearing a quilt?  Keep it cool perhaps.

Yes, to keep the car cool. That is the same reason the roofs are painted white on some race cars.

I would ask. At the time it had a 427 TP, later it had a SOHC!

Oh, it IS a real 68 Shelby.
