Equipment
Chrome wire wheels, braced roll bar, one piece plexiglas windshield, Chrysler Hemi with four carbs. Reportedly raced by a Major Patton, then by Don Skogmo and class winner at Elkhart Lake 500 in 1961. Donated to a high school shop class, found and restored by Tivy Shelton in 1994. Has FIA papers and authentication from Allards Tom Lush. Prepared for historic competition and far better than new.
Market commentary
A no sale at Coys Birmingham auction in January 2000 and at Brooks Nurburgring sale in August 2001 (in both sales it was dated 1952.) Reported as a post block sale, this car has subsequently been advertised for private sale by Coys, casting some doubt upon the credibility of this transaction.
