Re: Show and Concept Cars

Just a note to update you all that I added pix of the Predictor, Request, Balboa and Pan Amercian concept cars to new "Show and Concept Cars" section, last night.

I've only found one of these photos published in any book - the one of the PanAm with the driver behind the wheel (though they didn't tell the full story).

The PanAm and Balboa images are from original factory public relations press releases in my personal collection. Yet, I had to revisit those submissions, this evening, to correct some of my typos and rephrase some of the descriptive text for clarity.

While the Balboa shot might look similar to one published in the Turnquist book, if you look closely, you'll see this this one has a slightly different angle/pose.

Unfortunately, I have yet to come up with pix of the Panthers that I can validate as a public release.

Meanwhile, I'm sure the viewing public will enjoy the show.
