I was reminded today of the incredible collection of race cars of Lindley Bothwell, and how much better Nik at CarrosAntigos.WordPress.com posts than I do

I'm pretty sure all of the above images were taken at the Del Mar Racetrack here in San Diego county

and I'm pretty sure all the rest were taken at the Bothwell ranch near Burbank

All images from Nik's post from 2008 https://carrosantigos.wordpress.com/2008/12/14/a-colecao-de-carros-de-lindley-bothwell/

I've posted about the amazing collection several times across the past 8 years, but the Sports Illustrated issue of 1954 really nailed the story http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-1957-sports-illustrated-feature-on.html
