I bet this car never sees the open road to stretch its legs ... grandad has one solid black same set up .. driven 100 mile loop every month Keeping ram jet engine alive ..
did you know most of the widows never actually ran with the fuel injection units in their time racing? it was discovered that the barometric pressures under the hood of the 150's wasnt right for these as once they got above 80mph the unit would start acting up, most of them instead ran with the dual quads as carbs were far more well known over here back then where as fuel injection was in its infancy here in the states where as the britts got a head start on us with it. From what i've heard they kept the fuel injection badges on for promotional sake or simply forgot to remove them.
UPDATE...this '57 will be cosigned to the Barrett-Jackson’s Scottsdale auction on January 24 thru the 31st, 2016.. there will be no reserve on this car.. the owner has also cosigned his serial #1 1955, 56, & 57 Corvettes to the same auction, those 3 WILL have a reserve price set.. for additional info check out the Barrett-Jackson web site.
