Hi Cliff: I watched Holbart, Penske and Bruce Jennings race at Marlboro, MD [.7 mile track] many, many times in the early sixties. #14, #6 and #77. Bob Holbart was much thinner in the face then that jpeg suggests and of slight build. I think the jpeg is captioned wrong regardless of source. Probably the individual you cited.C J Murray wrote:Holbert looks amazingly like Shelby.

Re: Dan Gurney died
To be accurate... Dan Gurney on left is pictured with Carroll Shelby on the right. I don't know when that picture was taken but both men were associated with Ford at various times.

Re: Dan Gurney died
Cliff. Maybe Holbert was wearing a Shelby disguise in that photo. My Mom took a great b/w picture of Dan in the eight cylinder car in the USGP pits at the Glen.

That does look a little like a rubber mask.Chris Duerr wrote:Cliff. Maybe Holbert was wearing a Shelby disguise in that photo. My Mom took a great b/w picture of Dan in the eight cylinder car in the USGP pits at the Glen.
