I assume Dave meanwhile used his tools to search the registry (hidden files) for the other JEK616 in that sales ad to find out, if that trace would take the case any further.

I wonder also if someone knows the further history line of Ray Wolffs shop at El Segundo after 68/69 through the 70ies and if there were any linked garages, that could be called Ray's Hi Performance center without being "sued" by Ray Wolff in his neighbourhood along Sepulveda Freeway.

So the question remains if one can look up the business background of this advertising Ray just to add more to the research or skip this.

From what I have seen Ray Wolff was at Hi-Performance Motors. There was an add where he was looking for salesmen for Cobras and Shelbys. This was Carroll Shelby and Lew Spencer's place correct? Did he leave that business and start his own not far away in Inglewood?

This link clearly shows that he raced in 1968 under the name of Ray's Hi-Performance Center.

Obviously it makes sense that Ray Wolff has a link with that sales ad to the licence plate code of the Morrison car.
One step further ;)

That Add for the 67 Shelby sure is interesting...anything is possible.
Ray Wolff (also seen it as Ray Wolfe) was General Manager at HI-PO Motors
He picked up 6S2020 from SAI after two months of "storage" 12/30/66 ( maybe thats when 2020 got the motor from 5R540)....Ray Wolff, General Manager/Racer at Hi-Po Motors................?
2020 went back and forth from SAI and HI-PO Motors about three times between 7/11/66 and 2/28/67
Became a Company car at SAI, and never sold through a dealer to the public.
Howard thinks an employee bought 2020 when LAX shut down.

Wow, and there it is. Very cool.

All I hear is crickets in here since the Ray Wolff revelation. What happened?

That's 1969 status quo and we are already past that. I predict the bandwidth is smoking looking for the name Wolff.

No. Like finding that mine is as likely as finding that car. The highest probability is that neither exist.

I realize you are known for your snarky comments. You know the best thing about those are. It puts the post back on top. Thanks!
