Yes, that's Jim Froula. Very good driver and a fine mechanic/
fabricator. I think he also carried Cameron Healy's Pooper out to the
Glen. The guy who built the body (Tippe Lippe I think) was looking
forward to seeing the car again--he lives somewhere near Watkins Glen.
I guess he's in pretty ill health so it was a typical Cameron thing
for him to haul it back there--he's one of the good ones.
