I have found that the Mr. E.A. Smith that might have driven this car was from Bethel, Pa. If anyone knows him or knows his phone #, please PM me or call me at 419-234-2628. Thanks, Tom

Thanks for the help out there guys! I feel like I'm getting closer to solving this puzzle, and it may actually have a Don Yenko/Donna Mae Mims link!!! I still can't 100% say that my car is the number 23 car in the Meadowdale picture, my best evidence is the roll bar, windscreen and most of all the damage to the right rear quarter. I have attached a link to a picture of the 23 car being raced in 1963 at the SCCA Cumberland race. It's being chased by the same #77 Porsche as the Meadowdale picture. The owner driver of the #23 car is E.A.(Edwin)Smith of Bethel Park,Pa. Bethel Park is 12 miles from Cannonsburg,Pa., home of Yenko Chevrolet. I have noticed in my race research that every race I found that E.A.Smith drove in, Don Yenko drove in also. Is it possible that they were race buddies or even partners? Is it possible that the Corvette was purchased from Yenko Chevrolet. Can anyone out there put me in contact with Mr. Smith or his family? any help is appreciated. Tom Purdy 419-234-2628

Car is still for sale. I will sell it without big brakes and/or wide wheels as just a FI car or even without FI unit.

Car is still for sale if you guys know anyone interested. I have a buyer for the big brake set up and the wide wheels. I would sell the car for 60K as is with the following exceptions: it will have standard brakes, full hubcaps, and 5" wheels with wide whitewalls. The car is all numbers matching and components correct and a great driver as is.
