Great photos Earl, thank you for posting them!
The last time I saw 2196 was at the "100 Years of Ford" Laguna Seca Historics. 2196 was just exiting the last turn onto the front straight and it's right front headlight was pointed to the moon. I believe it was Dick Smith's 427 that went into the corner, lost an oil cooler hose and created one of the most expensive chains of events that I had ever seen! I believe that I have photos somewhere.
