Yeah, they got the wheels wrong, but I'm sure they can be used for some other project if wanted.
They do look like something from a Ferrari, as mentioned earlier, or even one of the first FORD GT racers.
Also, the lower rocker panels appear black in the picture, I believe they were more of a copper/bronze color.
Hap did typically drive the #65, but hey - look at that body.
It's no wonder we all stared at the Chaparrals like new girlfriends when we were just young boys!
Those cars were the sexiest things on the track - eat your heart out, Speed Racer!
And thanks for the beautiful photo. -- Ernie :>)
