    If you look closely, it seems that right lower corner of fiberglass is gone like he already made contact and is about to do it again!! LOL

    I'm guessing that "scratch" was from an earlier run that day. This would have been another pass, just to make sure that there was really a problem? Sometimes, we drag racers need an extra dose of confirmation before we admit that something is wrong.

  6. Also, above right headlight, fiberglass appears all cracked up.

    My midyear is a 'day two hotrod'. Not even posting a pic here, these Corvettes are wild, I can't compete!

  16. The hood on this car was on my 57 when it had a blower motor in it. The owner Oran Hayes has owned the car since the early 70’s. It was a beater when i worked in his bike shop as a kid. I introduced my boss to my Dad since they had the same vettes. Both cars where rebuilt and back on the road in the mid 80’s. This one eventually became a full time race car.

    Thanks for the cool history and family connection. Great looking Vette.

  19. Kirby Wallace from Trenton, Michigan. Probably most, if not all, of the trophies are from Detroit Dragway as Trenton is about 1/2 mile from Detroit Dragway.

  21. I don't know. I last saw Kirby at a Cruise Night about 6 years ago and he was driving a daily driver. Didn't think to ask him about the Vette
