and more :

Mc Allister in the 1972 Mirage-Ford finished second, some tenths of a second behind Barazi's Porsche 917 after a race that had been dominated by the Ligier JS3 of Jankovski. The Ligier encountered some technical problems in the last lap and so Mc Allister and Barazi had to fight it out in a sprint, coming out of the La Source hairpin.

I'm not terribly familiar with sportscars, but is this also of interest? I have few other photos of this car, and will post them if they're of any use (I don't recall where I picked them up)...

I don't remeber that car at all, unless it is the car that got pushed off the grid at LeMans because of some minor rules dispute...with later mods

No, it's not the 1982 M12 Group C car that was practised by Mario and Michael Andretti and then prevented from starting - it's the 1973 M6 coupé with the Weslake-Ford V12 that ran at the Test Weekend but never raced.

Chris McAllister also has a Ford GT40, McLaren M21, a Ferrari F1, T4 I think. I THINK he also has a McLaren Can-Am M8E or F. He sells a lot of heavy equipment here in Indiana, tractors, bulldozers, etc.

He is also a very nice guy who has real enthusiasm for his cars.
