"When we learned that Porsche would be the featured marque at this year's Monterey Historic weekend, we wanted to bring our own contribution to the event by restoring the No. 80 art car to its original Le Mans livery," said Seth Neiman, Flying Lizard team principal and driver of the team's No. 44 Porsche in the American Le Mans Series. "We're delighted to have the Lizard back in place showing his vivid chameleon-like colors." Jerry Woods Enterprises, in Campbell, California did the restoration with the assistance of Troy Lee, who added the final artistic touches to match the original livery.
