Still wielding the paintbrush, here's Gurney '64

[strada5300]

I don't know enough about computers to transfer an image. I always thought the Cobra effort in the '64 Targa was laudable but lamentable (Shelby didn't count on how rough the roads were though he had driven the Targa himself years earlier). I had this old publicity picture for 40 plus years, but only thought of doing a painting once I got the blue color right If anyone knows how to transfer it from this website
   to this forum, feel free

   Incidentally I thought I saw this same car which I reckon was CSX2323,  at the Cars 'n Coffee meet in Irvine,CA a few months ago but it was early in the a.m and wasn't quick enough to shoot a picture of the CSX plate. I know one company makes a replica albeit with a 5-speed manual. Dan Gurney was there and posed by it so maybe it was the real thing....
