How do I know what Grady looked like 50 years ago? Easy...met him in '75. He helped me when I had a mechanical malfunction with an old 911S when I was far from home. Yes, I'd say that's Grady in those quick shots.
Grady indeed was a man who had "been there-done that" during Porsche's glory days.
(edit) One find memory of meeting Grady was the 1975 PCA Parade on Seattle....Grady at the rear of his maroon 911, both weber carb banks out, carb pieces scattered on a blanket...Gtady: "There's the problem." He must have found it, because he did quite well in the autocross...
