Bob Bondurant signed the wheel. I think Phil Remington signed it too. The wheel sold to a member of the Miller family for (I think) $2500. I thought about bidding but I don't know what I would have done with a wheel. Maybe if we were patient they will eventually auction off the entire Ken Miles car - it would be like the Johnny Cash song.



After all the auctioning was done there were opportunities for photos by CSX2138













Bill raised the hood so I could get some engine shots.

This was on the silent auction board for the wheel auction. It was during this time that they tried to start up the Miles car. It was on the front jack so tilted backwards. Bill came over, put a replacement wheel on, dropped it, futzed with the throttle and carbs and had it running in about 15 seconds. The sound of was sweet. One of the 427s also got a brief ear-ringing run, along with the Lola.
