Elegant indeed!

I guess blue jeans weren't invented back then. Notice the condition of the cars...lots of bnicks and dings on some of them. And check out the other cars in the photo with #161....a Jag, a Lotus (?) and a Mercedes!

awesome cegerer! Are these your personal photos, or did you find them on the net? My grandfather raced in the same era here in Hawaii, so the pictures are very similar...speedsters, 550's, Jags and vettes....maybe I'll post some!

Yeah, that's Denise in the #131 (and maybe the woman standing between the 2 guys??). These aren't my personal photos.
