Eagles Nest at the Petersen

A show honoring 50 years of success by Dan Gurney’s All American Racers has just opened at Los Angeles’ Petersen Automotive Museum.

Revs provided two of the display cars from the Collier Collection. One is the Formula 1 Eagle Gurney drove to victory in the 1967 Belgian Grand Prix. The other is Bobby Unser’s winning Eagle from the 1975 Indianapolis 500.

We attended the opening night of Petersen’s Gurney/Eagle show and wanted to give you a preview of the 12 Eagles on display.

Make it if you can, the display lasts throughout 2017.

 

Wait, we have one more photo. Dan Gurney was famous for being a hands-on guy with his cars. Seems to have started early in life…
