In the couple’s pool table/game room — ‘The Race Room’ — are 100-plus pictures of his racing days. One prized image, courtesy of the Ford Motor Company, is with Carroll Shelby and co-driver and friend Dan Gurney prior to the 1964 Le Mans 24 Hours race, where they placed fourth overall and won the GT III class.

Adjacent to the Le Mans image are pictures and renderings of the #5 Shelby Daytona Coupes they drove to victory. On the hearth flue is a reproduction of a story from Road and Track about Bob (inset) and, under the wall window is a lamp with his racing shoes and goggles, scale models of the Shelby Cobras he drove and a recent picture of the Bondurant’s (inset).

The couple’s shared love for Old World European pieces, such as the fire screen, urns and sculptures completes the room.
