Default Randy Jones' (RLJ) Iris - looking for photos/info

Hi all, hoping for some help in digging through the personal archives of some of the early / early911 members. About a year ago I purchased Randy's "Iris" '71 911E. I've been able to dig out quite a bit of info by searching here, early911s, Pelican, and the online photos i can find from the early R Gruppe Treffens. I'm cross-posting here and there to cast a big net.

If you have old photos, or stories of the man himself and the journey to build this hotrod, would love to hear them - here or via PM is fine. For reference, what i've been able to determine is that a lot of the work was done personally by Randy, Dick Elverud built the 3.2l, Gordon Ledbetter built the transmission, Gamroth did the corner balance and some of the suspension work as best i can tell.

Pic of the car for reference:

Hey - I have some notes on his car from 2003 re how the motor is setup (mine is similar) and IIRC he changed it too. I may have some pics as well.

LMK if you want me to post here or pm.
