interesting site

Holy Cow!
That site has a picture of Doc Baker's old, wild TR3.
I used to see that car all the time when I ran autocrosses in Central NJ in the late 60s / early 70s.
In fact, I have several pictures of that car that I took back in the day.
And what's really funny is that the picture of that car is credited to a guy who is presently an aqaintance of mine....I'll see him next weekend. I had no idea that he was involved in the same autocross events that I went to....I'll have to talk to him about all this.
Neat! Thanks!
 
Adding more....
This is why I get such a kick out of the internet....a lot of times, it brings stuff full-circle.

Anyway, I just went looking through some of my old pictures and found at least one picture of Ansel (Doc) Baker's car.

The first picture is the from the website noted above (and taken by Bill G., who I know)

The second picture is me in my Bugeye with some friends at McGuire Air Force Base almost 40 years ago. Not the greatest shot, but the car in the background is Baker's TR3. I have at least one other print-picture of Baker's car plus a good number of other pictures of some of these events. This Winter, when I'm stuck inside, I'll scan them and post them
