If you look on Heleysix.net, it maybe that the rear axle from a car
owned by De Portago was used in a Healey for a while, but it's very unclear.
I was hoping that the film was aviable to stream, but no such luck. I
have a shot of Taruffi and von Trips approaching the line in my
collection and would love to see how the directors represent it.
It *was* a very brutal race.
