Not Ranked
Tim-
I thought you might enjoy seeing this beautifully restored competition 289, painted blue with Torque Thrust wheels:
It's a slabside body with modified flares on the rear to permit bigger tires. Note the unusual bumper/quick-jacks and rear-braced roll-bar. The over-sized oil cooler scoop seems to have been added some time after the black-and-white promotional photo was taken, or maybe it is just hidden in the shadow.
