(7-30-09)   From author and photographer Will Edgar, son of John Edgar:

"The shot of the #185 Ferrari at Palm Springs is Shelby driving Tony Parravano's 410 "Speciale" s/n 0592 CM

This was a 12-plug car, not a 24-plug like the "Sport" model.  #185 is a 4.9-liter V12, single ignition. The history of this car is told by Michael T. Lynch in CAVALLINO magazine #147 (June/July 2005).
