Well I can identify that tubular frame on the left. It's a Hi Jumper RS2 or RS3 desert offroad race car frame. Similar to and a little newer than my Hi Jumper Ascot you see in my avatar (although a single seater while mine is a 2 seat). Definitely NOT a Chenowth or Funco or other.

When my parents got married they decided they only needed one car. They sold my Dad's Tempest and kept my Mom's 1965 Bug. Here is my Dad just after they got married in 1969.

My Dad took these photos around 1973 when the Inch Pincher Too came to Massachusetts.

I'm guessing Jim Holmes, Darrel Vittone's crew chief?
