How about this one? Stirling Moss at Laguna Seca, 1961. Note the "roll hoop" and cheesy helmet. He apparently did not believe in roll hoops, helmets or seatbelts. Hoop and helmet were so they would shut up and leave him alone. Seatbelt probably not even in the car.
Seatbelts? Real men are held in their seats by the weight of their giant brass balls.

So this is yours? Has a 3800? Cool car! Have any more picture/info/build thread?

This guy lives where I do (East TN). Beauutiful car. Poetry in motion.
I could be wrong, but I doubt it is an American V6. I believe Westfield BMC all the way.
Really would like to know more about this car and see more pictures!
