No, I didn't post twice. This is Al Holbert's 1974 Trans-Am car, and it was a new chassis. The engine had been upped to 3.0L from that used in the '73 car. Holbert placed fourth in the championship (over 2-liter class) with a first at Lime Rock. This car was campaigned for several years, leading up to a first place finish at Sebring in 1976. The car was raced as late as 1978, and was later restored to its blue, red-orange, and yellow finish from the 1976 Sebring win. Goodings auctioned the car for close to $3/4M in 2013.
