Some little things that popped out at me in some of the pictures.

In Steve's picture #2 , the guys are standing in mud working on the car.
The guy on driver side is standing in a puddle, and the tires are muddy.
1962 was grass roots , mud and guts

Picture #3 is same vehicle, but has nice finned valve covers and chrome exhaust.
In the other pictures the car had home-made looking valve covers and plain exhaust.
The "nicey" stuff must have came on after the Big Win

In Ponyakr's close-up of Bounty Hunter he has Chrisman's name crossed out on the list.
Chrisman returned that favor at Indy
Also noted Connie didn't have Don Garlits name on the Wanted List ?
or was "The Big Wheel" actually Don Garlits ? (pre-dating Big Daddy nickname ?)
