The first L78 for public sale was Jenkin's car.
The only non-IPC cars that are known to exist are:
Jenkins
John's blue car
Mark's old red car
White convertible that Richard knows about.
.... Here is that prior post .
... Thanks for clearing thar up.

... Kurt, you have gathered a wealth of knowledge on CRG.
... How many Indy Pace Cars were 4P ?
... Did ALL the Indy Pace Cars that had 4P on the cowl tag, have the rear panel painted the same color as the rest of the car
... And No Black Rear panel ?
