I believe that the person selling all the Carrera photos is the same person I met something like 6 years ago, when he sold Dave Scully a bunch of photos of American cars in the Carrera Panamericana. Dave has been working on a book on American cars and drivers in the Carrera for over 10 years. The person who had the photos also did a book, now very rare, in Spanish, on the Carrera. The book is mostly newspaper reports in Mexico from the period, and the reproduction quality is rather poor.
