Bob Bondurant's 1970 T160 was owned by Jerry Smith, and was the car used in 1969 by Chuck Parsons, according to Pete Lyons Autosport reports from 1970.
Chassis 4 was for sale a couple of years ago, the accompanying photo showed the car in front of a transporter with "Eagle Industries Racing Division" logos, and the car carrying a race number 44, but as Charles as found out now, there was no race history given.
As a bit of a long-shot, if the car has been restored to "period" livery, Jerry Hansen used race number 44 very often, and apparently had a T160, which he swapped with Fred Baker for an M6B in 1969. Hansen contested a lot of SCCA races, so maybe he used this 160 in those events. I've seen nothing on Hansen driving a T160 in the CanAm, only a T165 in 1970 - These followed the T160 chassis numbering, roughly in the range 22-25.
