the old Sebring Airport in 1954 as a young Carroll Shelby drives up in his Aston Martin DB3S that he co-drove with Charles Wallace. This was only the second 12 hour race at Sebring and the airport shows the long neglect it suffered since the end of World War II.

Boy, Carroll was just a baby then. I was noticing the '53/'54 Ford in the back ground with the tinted plexi-glass roof. Is that model a Crown Victoria too? I'll have to investigate that a little. I never saw one that year.
ReplyDeleteThe tinted sun roof cars... Fords Crestline Skyliner or Mercury Monterey Sun Valley, I've posted both way back when
