Damn.
Brock loved him some Indy roadsters. He had a '56 Kurtis Kraft 500F Novi replica (Maserati engine, not Novi
)
But he also owned the '61 Elder Crawford Roadster... with a legit Offy
One of the greats

He was THE automotive journalist by which all others were measured. Truly the best. RIP Brock."It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."Comment
