1957 CORVETTE SEBRING RACER MULE CAR

[MultiMopars]

No.

The car that my partner and I owned 30+ years ago was build very early in the 1957 model year whereas the majority of the air box cars were built around May of 1957.

Back in 1977 when we took this car to an NCRS meet where the late Mike Hunt (pretty much the authority on these cars at the time) sermized that the car had to be a mule car (test car for the later to come Sebring cars) It is now suspected that this car along with a couple of other cars raced at Nassua earlier in the year.

I sold out my interest in the car to my partner about 1 year after we purchased it. He sold it to the previous owner of the current owner. When it was sold to the current owner it was represented to have been a Sebring racer of a certain number/driver. That is probably unlikely but that does NOT mean that the car was not also raced at Sebring as a "P" car. I personally think the the previous owner to the current owner made a mistake in representing the car as he did and that the car as the true Nassau racer I believe it was/is is more valuable than any of the other regular Sebring racers.
