These photos from the 1965/66 season are taken at the New Zealand Grand Prix meeting, in which the organisers sent Australian Touring Car Champion Ian 'Pete' Geoghegan across to take on the local hot shots, headed at the time by Dave Simpson and Paul Fahey in Lotus twin-cam powered Ford Anglia's.

Jim Clark, pictured in the above post, retired early with gearbox issues, while the 1966 NZIGP was won by Graham Hill, from Jackie Stewart (both in works BRMs), with Jim Palmer 3rd in a Lotus Climax, and our own Roaring Season member Dennis Marwood, in a Cooper Climax.

Are those tubes an inlet trumpet experiment?

Thanks to both Steves for these and the Levin photos. Whose was the Lexington Camaro?

Cheers

No photo has come up on your post Lee. But are you referring to the Mustang at the top of the page? If so, those aren't inlet trumpets, they're exhaust pipes. This was a popular modification at the time, used on several V8 powered race cars.
