The 1967 LeMans trophy finds its awy back to Ford.

It's nice it's back home. They keep looking for the crystal punch bowl. I hope it turns up some day, but no doubt it's been sold a million times and is in someone's kitchen hutch and they have no idea what it is. Maybe it'll show up on Pawn Stars some day.
Cheers,
Tony
