Yes! Point earned and given.

Now, I will award an additional point to the first person to identify the chassis number of the particular car shown in the puzzle photo. (Hint: This is not as difficult as it may seem.)

Open to Pros as well!

Is it yours?
I see it was sold at the Gooding & Co auction at Pebble Beach in 2008 (and perhaps it's been sold on since then too).

It was mine when I originally created this username. Regretfully, I was the seller at Gooding PB back in 2008. (The car has not been sold since and remains with the gentleman who purchased it from me.)
