That is known as the Honker I believe, do have it somewhere sitting in a box of stuff! I think that Mario Andretti drove it but it wasn't a successful car. Nice collection Paul, I can remember seeing some of those cars at Brands Hatch especially the AMR F3L, I was all of thirteen back then.

Holman & Moody built Can Am car using Ford power. Backed by actor Paul Newman, there is a famous exchange where Newman asked Andretti why they were not getting the speed needed out of the car. Mario told him that he would paint his name on the car and that Newman should drive it

This is nice! I had a fleet of beat up Matchbox cars which included two or three of these - I think they just said Ford Group 6 (or 4?), but I loved the shape!
