"Pizza Man" Corvette for sale at Mecum auction

[Jimbo17]

A few years ago I was contacted and asked to create some of the decals that were on the original car which I did and I remember the owner telling me he tried for years to get all the original documentation for the car from Earl Britts son which he finally did get along with all the National Record certificates and trophies the car had one over the years.

I know he spend a great deal of money to bring it back to original condition and I think I remember him also telling me something very interesting about the car and that it had never been registered to be driven on the street.

This car really had a real famous racing history and having a six cylinder Pontiac engine made it very different for sure.

I'll take a large pie with pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers and extra cheese.

I didn't realize that this old Corvette was Pontiac powered...anyone know what he's asking for it, I wonder if it will sell or not...

I remember seeing this car at the 1967 Springnationals at Bristol. That was my first big race I attended and I was living the dream after reading the magazines for several years and then getting to see all of those cars I had read about.
