    There was also late 60s early 70s wingless McLaren

    If ever in the Midland, Texas area, be sure to stop by the Petroleum Museum and visit the Jim Hall/Chaparral Racing display. All of Jim Hall's race cars are on display including the famous "sucker" car. It is an outstanding collection and display.

    Bill Dollahite has a can am car at Driveway Austin but I doubt he'd ever sell it. You could ask though. It's a v6 spec car from the late 80's early 90's.
