Is this the Corvette formally owned by Jim Lovallo?

Jim's Corvette was sold to someone in Ottawa many years ago. I was a SS/EA '67 but originally a '66. I though maybe that someone changed it to a '65 (LOL) and to a Modified Production racer.

It’s my understanding that Jim Lovallo built the corvette raced by Jerry Stealy and currently campaigned by the professor, Bill Foder. Wonder what the hell happened to Jim …..somehow he switched to the dark side MOPAR camp…LOL …!!!!

It's true and Jimmy lives in Godfrey IL., sold his A/SA Max Wedge car also his '66 GT/HA Belvedere and now has a '67 Dart that he bracket races at Gateway.
I convinced him many years ago to switch to the "dark side" and he's glad he did.
Mopar or Nocar!
