I have spent the last two nights scrolling through this thread. Very interesting to someone like me who doesn't know the race history of these cars!

One thing I havent seen is a pic from Watkins Glen. I grew up in WG about 2 miles from the track during the Grand Prix days, and would love to see a pic or two from there. Be a GREAT desktop pic for me.

Saw a couple pics here with blue gaurdrails, but couldn't tell if it was the Glen or not.

Absolutely love the '68 and '69 convertible racers.
