Ed Hugus / Peter Jopp -- A.C. Shelby Cobra-Ford "Indy" (1)

This Cobra, driven by Hugus and Jopp,  was disqualified after completing 127 laps for illegally adding oil.  Dr. Ernie Nagamatsu campaigns a similar Cobra in historic racing today. 

Barely visible behind the green Cobra is a peek at a real exotic, #2, the Maserati Tipo 151/3 coupé driven by André Simon and Lloyd "Lucky" Casner.  This one-of-a-kind car DNF'd with gearbox problems after completing 40 laps.
