I have pictures of the J11 when she was completed. I saw the car at Farnborough after being painted. And sold though Duncan Hamilton at Bagshot. J12 was Rod Leachs White MKIV. At the time of building they still had not sorted the sequence of chassis numbers. Both cars were being called J12. All MkIV seem to land up with red paint.AJ Foyt was given the Bruce Mclaren Yellow MkIV J5 by Ford. It was painted red as the Lemans winner. Correct me if I am wrong but the way to tell the Lemans winner is by the bottom being Squared off instead of rounded?
