"My Guess: Jack Millikan driving George Hollinger’s Lola T70."

(2-9-12)   More from Jim Hawes:

"I got to thinking about George Hollinger and some of his racing. I was in the Army when some of this took place, but as I remember:  George owned (?) the T-70 that Jack Millikan drove at Laguna (maybe he was just the “Entrant”, I think it was an ex-Surtees team car, but I am not sure of this).

He later bought a later model T-70 from Bill Young.

Dick Barbour (Automotion - San Diego) drove George’s car at Riverside. They had the cars painted the same colors.

I believe George and Jack drove the cars in Mexico City. 

I’m not sure if George ended up buying 2 cars from Bill Young or the first car was from someone else, BUT George ended up with one of the T-70’s (Bill Youngs?) that had one of the massive sets of Weber 58mm Side Draft carbs sitting on a cross-ram manifold! Damn that looked great. 

The induction was too much (no low end, but LOTS of top end!) and they switched to a set of 48mm IDA’s before Mexico.

A couple of years ago Dave Schneider (Schneider Cams) called me and asked if I could identify a set of carbs and manifold he found in his storage rafters. He described them, and I had to laugh. I remembered most of the details on their history. I told him he had found a gold mine! I think he gave them to his partner Jerry for his street rod! 

Not that any of this matters, but it may help identify some of the Lola T-70 pictures you find."
