McQueen dreams

A couple of weeks after breaking his foot racing a Husqvarna dirt bike at the 1970 Lake Elsinore GP, Steve McQueen did what any self-respecting movie star-cum-amateur motorsport star would do: He teamed up with Peter Revson and nearly beat out Mario Andretti and Team Ferrari for the overall win at the 1970 Sebring 12-Hours.

The race has become the stuff of legend as McQueen, with his foot in a cast, and Formula One star Revson outgunned a field of factory teams with McQueen

Why couldn't it have been a 904?
I might trade my car for it if that were the case. (Hey, Chuck Beck liked it. It could happen.)
