Cool story!

I met an older English gentleman at a hotel bar in Charlotte and struck up a conversation, turns out he did fabrication and chassis development work for Shelby on the GT-40, worked for Ford Racing, and had freelanced for just about everyone else. He was an encyclopedia on racing from the '60s through the '80s, just an incredibly cool guy to talk with. He also had a 250TR that he'd built out of a 330, Rally Monte Carlo winning Falcon, Bugeye Sprite, Cortina, and some other cool stuff.
