These cars, in successive years, started a revolution at Indy that was fundamental.      Yes the Cooper is green. Coopers have to be green. The Cooper is a Pinto kit, the Thompson is Calvin's and the Lotus a modified AMT kit. Interesting that Gurney was directly involved with two of these and later drove GP cars for Brabham the driver of the other one. |

The do-in of the dinosaurs! The ruin of the roadsters! The end of an era! In other words: nice builds of those very important Indy cars!

I agree! Coopers MUST be green! This is my scratch-bashed version made before Pinto's great example.  Love your builds!! My research showed the seat belts were Air Force grey. Patrick |

Those are beautiful, you've documented the times that, to quote Bob Dylan were "a' changin'" in an accurate, brilliant way.
