I never noticed the tin foil like wrap between the seats before. Any clue what it's for? A heat shield for the radiator fluid perhaps?

Wow - that will be one cool car to see. I hope we can get close to it when it'e parked. Neat story too.

That exhaust system, along with Jim Clark's Indy car, has to be the greatest ever.

I wonder if Mose has a story about how they came to be?
