(Thompson is still alive in his late eighties - He was inducted into the Corvette Hall of Fame in 2000.
He won the SCCA championship in his Corvette's in classes A,B and C in '56, '57, '60, '61 & '62!
He won Watkins Glen in the Grand Sport in '63))

Dog you are the man with the vintage shots... WOW! Love the GS shots... who shot these?

Re: Don Yenko - Racer

[b]Dick Thompson obviously had that Zora Arkus-Duntov connection - here is a shot of him in a
Stingray from an Aug. 1960 Road & Track article.

These shots are attributable to several photographers -
Roger Blanchard, Gordon Warren, Tucker Conley, Bill Reynolds, Nick England, Ed Lloyd, Bob Fitzpatrick,
John Ewald, Jack Upchurch, Les Nance, Gerald Eckstein, Bill King and Jack Stokes.
My apologies if I left anyone out.

I have some Shelby Mustang & Cobra shots if anyone would like to see that Ford Stuff posted.
