MkIV - J10

[Junior Mason]

My father Jim Mason who build the frame for all MK4 at Brunswick Aircraft Corp., repaired J2 with two of his colleagues and I still have the title for it, later the car was sold unfinished.

Does anyone know which chassis # Ken Miles was driving at Riverside when the crash occurred?

MK-IV Sn J-2 was destroyed in the crash that took Miles life.

I believe it was in a configuration like this:

 

[Jim P. in USA]

...... It was rebuilt into a MK4 coupe many years ago...... It was original raced as a Can Am roadster.

some interesting photos found of either J9 or J10,

I don't know if any of these engines were the 3 valve "calliope" 427 ??

Jim
The Can Am roadster you mentioned the one with the dyherdal wing this never raced it was
J-9 it was called the G7-A. J-10 and the whole G7-A project was sold to Charlie Agapiou (and his brother) who raced it with little success. The J car that Ken Miles was testing was J-2. It was going to enter Can Am as part of the test program. That's why it was in that configuration.

Jim the picture of the Can Am Ford roadster with Allen Mann is nothing to do with the J-cars it was a seperate project.
