Off topic, but right now, in the lobby of Ford Motor HDQ (I live in Detroit), is Clark's Indy winning Lotus 38. It looks like nothings been touched since '65, except the mirrors are gone, and the windscreen looks too new.
It sits almost ignored by most people. It is not roped off, and you can go around, over, under, everything but in.
Very primitive by today's standards. Reminds me of my '70's vintage Formula Fords. I couldnt help but feel reverence for the memory of one of the very best racers ever to turn a wheel.
If anyone visits Detroit in the near future (CART race?), let me know, I'd be glad to arrange a visit.
