I have been in contact with the owner of this car.....
Here's what they have to say.
Quote:
First off they built 3 Corvairs, people will disagree. Here are facts about the car at Bloomington:
1. It does have a few parts from the original 3rd car that was a motorama car. 2. The top, trunk, doors, hood center console, rear deck lid, fenders were all modified to prints. 3. The car is an early 54 frame and body, there are two hood pulls. 4. For a power train it has a 53 motor, a real 066 head and a real 53 valve cover. 5. Many old timers in this hobby have helped with this project and it is not just one person, but you are more than welcome to trash them all if you like and I can give you all the names. 6. It was only taken to Bloomington so John Kennedy and Steve Newsom could see the car up close.
I have a few other acquaintances who dispute those facts.
