The DEA seized the Le Mans winning Kremer built Whittington Bros. 935 from a private race gathering held today at Mazda Laguna Seca raceway. Current owner, mega car collector Bruce Meyers could do nothing as agents winched the 1979 24hour winning car on to a flatbed, probably headed to a Salinas impound lot.

Scroll to the Drives, Tours and Adventures section.
This car has been a hot topic for decades, but in the DEA's ballpark now.

That blue/orange John Paul 935 was built in Norcross, GA, not too far from me.

Yes the infamous JLP3 (which is more blue/yellow in person)


That is actually the JLP4 constructed by FABCAR in GA - Now Red & White and lives in Europe

Yes, the picture you posted is the car I took pictures of @ Road Atlanta in 1981. I was confused b/c JLP-3 was listed as made and raced in 1981. JLP-3 may have been the endurance car, they may have been using both.
