Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. 600hp small block Chevy, Hilborn FI, Hewland 5 speed transaxle. Originally entered by John Mecom, driven by George Alderman and Brett Lunger during 1966 and 1967 seasons with Ford power. Converted to coupe with Chevy power, then back to open body. Recently race prepared and last run at 2003 Wine Country Classic. A clean and fast Can Am car said to be RTR.

Market commentary

Some observers (with a vested interest, perhaps) think this is a bargain but both its body and its power are one step removed from its original Can Am configuration, making it more of a good value than a bargain. It should need nothing more than normal prudent preparation and safety checking of critical components to be track ready, and it sure is pretty.
