    For those of you who like memorabilia about the '60s, I finally finished the painting of Dan Gurney who of course with A.J. Foyt won
    leMans in '67 in a Mk. IV Ford GT. I portray him with the famous bottle of champagne in his hand (though I didn't mention the brand, Moet ed Chandon). I'll have the original on the block at the Mecum auction at Monterey, or you can write for info on the poster. To see the work, here's the URL:

    Incidentally that bad boy Gurney shook up the magnum of champagne and gave everyone a champagne shower from the victory stage, which became a standard thing for racers everywhere.
