Does anyone have an overhead shot of either the real car, Jorgensen's body or the diecast?
I was thinking this would be a cool car to attempt to scratch build and was looking for something to draw a template from

Yo Mike! Good to see you back among the living! Sorry for the health problems, but good to see you fighting through them...On the Openwheel Board, Dan Parke was attempting the same thing: a scratch built Foyt 77... I sent him my Jorgenson kit which he will do a WIP on...from that, you may be able to get some ideas...the kit contained a bunch of parts, but will still require scratch building on the exhaust and rear suspension...I hope this helps... I am wondering if Walt (OldPhotos) has a drawing of this car??? Again, good to hear from you! Tim

Also, can you still get Jorgensen kits any where ? Steve I haven't seen anything new from Jorgensen Resins in over four years. You can find them from time to time on ebay, but usually they command high prices. Check out the "For Sale" section on the board, under a "couple of rare resin Indy cars for sale on ebay", this will give you a gauge of what they go for.

Both cars were designed by Bob Riley, along with the Dragon(Gary Benttenhausen) and Lindsey Hopkins Rileys(Roger McCluskey) to name a few. However, each car has it's differences. Bob has also designed many IMSA cars as well.
