Who’s the driver ?

I have this cool 3’ x 5’ tin sign and I’m thinking of selling it, but I don’t know who the driver is in the photo. Does anybody know ? It’s from 1981 IMSA & I think the car is a 79 934.

He’s nobody, just an actor for the ad series.

That's the Whittington Bros. Road Atlanta sponsored car. Kevin Jeanette (Gunnar Racing) eventually extricated it from the DEA in FL and restored it for a customer.

Probably just a model.

Looks like a 935 to me.

Might not even be a race car, but also a model.

I’ve seen 3 different versions, each on a different corner and aspect of the driver and car . All at Road Atlanta.
