From Mr. Wolf: “It is a 1949 Lincoln Club Coupe built to race in the 1950 La Carrera Panamericana, driven by Jimmy Hicks. Rediscovered sometime around 1999 in a junk yard in San Jose, it was restored and raced in the 2006 & 2007 Panamericana. It is currently powered by a warmed-over Ford FE 390, and since the T10 4-speed manual blew up a few days ago (right smack-dab in the middle of downtown Palo Alto, in the middle of the road, at rush hour, in front of a high end open-air restaurant. With my wife in the car.) I am in the process of swapping in a 5-speed. Turns out the shop that installed the powertrain put in a driveshaft that was a few inches too long, which caused the mainshaft/output shaft to snap right in half. Oops! Hey, if you’re going to break down and cause a massive traffic problem, you might as well do it in style, right? As soon as I am able to get it to a point where it stops blowing up every time I drive it, it will be out on the racetrack!”
