Re: 1957 CORVETTE SEBRING RACER MULE CAR
Thanks for the visit Darryl,
I did not realize we burned up so many phone minutes. 140 to be exact. Your ownership history will be well received by the current owner. I have sent you some photo history of the engineering Nassau and Sebring race cars. I will keep you up to date on the history as we all find more. Thanks for coming forward. We are only caretakers of these old cars, and their accurate history of ownership keeps the hobby honest.
I have added a picture of Jim Jeffords at Milwaukee in April 1957 AFTER Sebring and Marlboro races. He bought this car and drove it home to Wisconsin. He painted the car maroon (Candy Aplle Red ?) and continued racing it thru 1957. He sold it thru Dick Doane Chevrolet around Christmas 57, as in January 28, 1958 he bought the Harley Earl blue 56 SR-2 race car. Who knows, but your car may have started life as this car. My guess is that is the history, but time will tell as more of the puzzel is uncovered.
