Way cool you've been face on w/ both Hill & Hall! . I've been lucky over the years to meet many drivers including Phil Hill but never the inovative Texan. . It sounds like an interesting drive operating the wing-flapper cars and your description makes perfect sense w/ left foot braking and the automatics. . I expect they were running the M40 trans? .
Mosport used to be the greatest. . As a kid I used wake up on weekend mornings to the sounds of the cars running the early practise. . If it was a major event and the cars were loud enough, I'd lay there listening and try to figure where on the track the car was. . After a few guesses it would match....kind've like a puzzle piece fits.
I have a pic here I scanned off the '71 CASC Rule book cover showing the front straight at the Mosport '70 Can-Am event? . Also a scan of a Mo' Carter ad from the inside of the rule book. . I've tried a few times before but can't seem to master the picture thing. . If anyone can do this for me, let me know and I'll email it. .
Sorry on the Gilles blubbering in my last post. . I still miss the guy and the world's just never been quite the same since he split. .

Without a doubt the Briggs Chevelle LS6 vert!

I'd have to change the interior out to ivory though

I think I'd take a RAIV GTO Judge ragtop from 1969. Even though I like the "other" colors, Carousel Red would be just fine'n dandy!

I've talked this one over with my father a few times and a 69 428HO Bobcated Grand Prix would be one heck of a ride! As for me I'd have fun with a Hurst SS/AMX!
