I have a few more than that which I'll share when I return home.
Also, as I commented privately to someone the other day - I think the 'German connection' on chassis #015 is a product of
gerd's past comments here, as he attributed all the F1s that came in through Amerispec Corp as coming from Germany. Leno's wasn't one of the 7 "Ameritech F1s" but was imported through the same company. While part of the trick of importing them might have involved shipping through Germany, that doesn't necessarily mean that was where they lived at any time in their lives.
For instance, Herb Chamber's Ameritech F1 (chassis #044) came into the USA with a UK plate on its nose, so I'd suspect that was perhaps its previous location.
