Two Ferrari owners of whom I know precious little, beyond Fred Knoop having run Austin-Healey, Huffaker Special and Ferrari cars in US competition through the late-'50s into the early '60s - while Pinkham and his wife were Bugatti fans and owners before acquiring Ferraris.  I would presently be interested in any background on either...

There's a feature on The racing Knoops (Fred & Rick) in the Mar-Apr 2014 Vintage Motor Sport

Coincidentally I have just received a very good biog on Mr Knoop.  Thanks for the above. More from anyone on the Pinkhams would be much appreciated.
