Dave, as always, you're right on top of things. Looks like an article to me. I wondered when I didn't find it in the book search engines I use, as they will typically pull up book titles like the giant Acme magnets Wile E. Coyote used to use to try to catch the Roadrunner.

The new '40 book sounds interesting. Carroll Smith worked at Shelby's back in the day, so he should have good insights. I hope/wish they spoke to Phil Remington and Chuck Beck, as they were both there as well (and, in the case of Rem, played a crucial role in making the cars the world beaters they ended up being). Of course, nobody consulted me before writing the thing so who knows.

Bob
