We were honored to be invited to display the Mk 1 at the Pebble Beach Concours d'elegance.  They had a special corral for the original race cars.  If anyone ever invites you to go, the answer is yes.  Rick Cannon (Ted's nephew and owner of the car), Dave Seely (Jim's son) in the drivers seat.  Baron Cannon on the right is Rick's son.
