I saw a Minatures Catalog the other day, it had plenty of Ferrari's
and other F1 cars, a fairly wide selection of Audi & BMW race cars, and lots
of other exotics. IT also had several Can Am cars including an EARLY
Chapparal and a couple of Mclaren M8's: both the low winged version and the
High Wing. But what I found interesting was the heading; They were
referred to as Mclaren M8x:Gurneys. Did Dan Gurney have a technical
relationship with Bruce Mclaren? I never heard about that.
oh btw...for a measly 5 thousand dollars, you can buy a 1/4 scale
Ferrari engine from their 2000 F1 cars.

Gurney drove for McLaren (at a Can-Am race @ MIS) and wanted to do more, but
conflicting sponsorships killed the deal.
Dashing Dan also massaged an M8B (I think) with his own brand of wizardry.
It was dubbed the "McLeagle".
