Well, neither of my guesses were right. It appears to be a Lola T70 to me, althought this is the first time I've heard of a Hemi being fit into one! Very interesting. Note the corner reinforcement on the monocoque construction, looks like a match to me.

Although this book does not include the Lola T70 as it focuses on earlier tube frame cars, I'm very interested in your pictures for possible future use. I have an idea for a book on Shelby's early efforts in CanAm.

Thanks, Chuck
