Don Steves Chevrolet also sponsored Dave McDonald when he drove solid-axle Corvettes in the early '60s, before he was hired to drive Cobras for Shelby American. McDonald and another driver went back to the factory and drove two early production '63 Corvettes back to California to be converted to race cars. I think the cars were sponsored by Don Steves Chevrolet?

Don Steve's Chevrolet also sonsored Don Nicholson's '61 409 Impala and Dan Gurney's '61 & b'62 409 cars as well. Don Steve's also sold (2) 1963 Z-11 427 Impala's new. Richard Sironion (John Mazmanian's nephew) ordered one and went to Tom Sturm and the other was a guy by the name of Lee Ellis whom I never heard about.
