I wonder if the Miles Collier car is in their museum in Naples, FL, where I live. The Collier Family is very prominent here (our county is named after them) and their museum, The Revs Institute, is an amazing place to visit if you're ever in the area.

Yes # 4 is at the Revs Institute (Collier Museum), but due to Covid the museum is presently closed.

Interesting Serial #3 (numbered 65 in the photos) is listed as Bob Patterson's in Vette Vues with a photo of the serial number. John Cannon was listed as the driver of the Dec 3 1963 Nassau race - finishing 8th.
Did Patterson own 2 of the cars?

If anyone is in the area of the Collier Museum I highly suggest visiting ESPECIALLY if you have any interest in sports car racing from the 50's - 70's.
We used to go every few years when my grandparents lived in Naples - it has been 20 years since I was there and have considered making the trip JUST FOR the Museum.

----As far as I know, Bob's GS was #4. The confusion came from the racing number which for some reason was 3. Bob kept the original racing number and that has caused interesting comments for years. Bob also owned only one Grand Sport!.....Bill S

Think it might go Penske/ClassicMotors Bill Roadster 001, Wintersteen/Simeone Roadster 002, Bob P. 003, Miles Revs 004, Penske Coupe/Bill Tower 005 (no expert, though!) ...?
