This video by Jay Leno just turned up-Leno interviews Nethercutt who has re-acquired his old Lotus 19 apparently. (Not impressed with Leno's questions!) I would refer you to the Lotus 19 thread of history but it ain't here anymore! In that thread I posted photos and correspondence I had with the owner of this Nineteen prior to Nethercutt's recent re-acquiring. I have to assume from the video that the person I knew and dealt with back in the eighties - Jan Nerheim- is the person referred to in the video as having died and his wife sold the car to Nethercutt.
I just dug out the communication I had with Jan Nerheim in which he gives the full history of 955 as well as other info on #957 (ex Jerry Grant) and also the Team Rosebud 19--with photos of the car after Ireland had been extracted from the wreck. Jan Nerheim was a turn worker and was on the scene immediately and photographed the wrecked Team Rosebud 19.
I am usure what to do with this info and photos. Any suggestions?
