The GP winner George Constantine drove a beautiful race in his TR Ferrari	Late in the day the sun reflects off the back as the Greek brakes hard for the last turn	Who cares that George Reed finished 7th.  This car is simply as good as it gets	Harry Heuer takes 1958 technology to a fabulous 3rd OA in the much updated Scarab	Westfield Walt Hansgen had his hands full with the rear engined birdcage.  Not an easy car to drive
Constantine on the grid with mechanic Werner and Bob Holbert alongside in his Porsche	Bob Bucher in the RSK with future Penske wrench Earl McMullen alongside.. George Reed behind	Harry Heuer looks very focused with eyes closed visualizing when his mechanic will wash filthy shirt	The rear engined Chevy powered Sadler with Grant Clark at the wheel did not finish	Penske gets pushed into the right grid position.  Is Alfred Momo looking to help?
The Meister Brauser was years ahead of its time in paintwork. Is that a bald spot on Harry's head?	Augis Pabst on the grid.  One of Momo's Italian mechanics is checking inside the car	Peter Ryan in his Lotus 19.  We BARCboys didn't like him because he was our age but could race at 18 because he was Canadian.	Augie bites his lip and hustles the front engine Maser to 4th OA but behind his old Scarab buddy	Hap Sharp came a long way only to DNF in his Cooper Monaco.
