Penske L88 Prototype

----The original is Kevin McKay's masterpiece restored in blue after the nose got knocked off at the 24hr of Daytona in 1966 . It was in MCACN in 2016 and BG as well for 50th anniversary celebrations. One of 4 66 L88 pure racecar built Corvettes referred to as the 4 Kings. My good friend Scott Freese has the only other known one of the 4. There have been pictures of his on this sight. It's still in its original red color and livery as it was 1st raced at Sebring in 1966.....Bill S

Wasn't there a White and Purple 66 Vette factory M22 big brake car still running around which was IIRC sold new at I believe Alan Green? I recall it being referred to as one of the 1966 L88's.

Also a reference to the Hipo 66 M22 cars in an article in late 65 or early 66 something regarding the different cam shaft and also stated gear drive.
