The red/maroon 1963? Corvette no. 11 is not a Yenko race car or a Gulf Oil Research car.

It was built (I think in the 1980s) by a friend of Don's who also was a Yenko collector.
He bought it as a used car and built it using some real Yenko/Gulf Corvette Team parts and some reproduction parts. The hood is a repop of a Grand Sport hood and the car has some nice parts from the Yenko/Gulf Corvette Team
It was driven by famous Corvette Team drivers Dr. Dick Thompson and Ed Lowther in the 1980s or 1990s at the Pittsburg GP vintage race when they were there as guests of the GP
