    I'd be guessing, but maybe Trevor Legate, who's written a comprehensive book on GT40's.

    Hi. That`s actually Jack Sears, Cobra hero from the 60`s, photo taken by Trevor Legate at the Haynes Museum Cobra day this September. Trevor asked me to post the pic(plus a few others) on ClubCobra.
    Regards, Nik.

    nik...doggone it...ya beat me to it.

    "The answer is - JACK SEARS. He drove the Daytonas to the 65 Championship for Alan Mann and also drove the Cobra roadsters for the Willment team and was the guy who tested the AC Coupe along the M1 at 185mph....."

    (I cheated...I asked Trevor.) :p
