These are so pictures I took at Darlington this year. The Turbo Offy Watson that Johnny Rutherford drove at Indy in 1965. Not sure exactly how much of the car is the original, but it looks like good reference. Mongo    |

Is this not the car of Bobby Grim from 1966?

Yes that is the Bobby Grim car now owned by Bob McConnell in Urbana Ohio. He has many Watson Roadsters and other Indy cars, probably the biggest collector of Indy cars that there is next to the Speedway.

In checking, Johnny Rutherford drove a Halibrand Ford rear engine car at Indy in 1965. This must be his 64 car the Bardhal Spl. but restored as it ran in 66, the last true roadster to make the field.

Thanks, Tom. I was just going by the name on the car and seeing Johnny at the track with the car. I didn't get to talk with anyone who was with the car..........
