Default Guns car as a flask!- bought a 1970s Dick Barbour 930 IMSAGT model flask- w/pics i

Kind of corny but thought I'd share my recent "jockey Lot" find (flea market). While cruising around looking for nothing particular I found and bought this 1970s or so Dick Barbour IMSA GT 930 whiskey decantour. Empty of course. It is missing the cork but still kind of cool. Anyone know anything about this.?

Guns- looks just like you car in red...Cheers, Mike








One of the real ones- Dick Barbour and Paul Newman

Haha that is GREAT! Talk about an off the wall find! Too cool Mike, thanks for posting the pics - we'll keep a lookout for the tail (big and small) . Too cool.

That is awesome! And coming from an IMSA background myself, I can only imagine driving the real car at one time was a blast!!

I bought a few of those for gifts when they were new, both the Red & Yellow. I only wish that the 2 I kept hadn't disappeared
