Does someone have the Nassau SpeedWeeks Book By Terry O'Neil please? If so can you do me a favor, for the 63' Race do the Grand Sport "Lightweight" Corvettes have Gold-ish Color Wheels?(I know this is not the magnesium something or the spray to see if the wheels cracked.)I am referring to #80,#65 and #50 entered by John Mecom.

Anybody Attended this Race?

What about the GOLD in Color Grand Sport Look-a-like entered in 65' #36? with white stripe. what are the whereabouts of this car and driver?

Thanks

Jose

Hello Jose,
Yes, the Grand Sport cars entered by Mecom did have gold(ish) colour wheels.

I knew it! Thank You, Exoto Got the Diecast Models Wrong(No surprise here!) I am looking for Footage(no matter how short or grainy) of the race vhs or dvd.

So far i've only seen the '64 Nassau Speed Weeks, 63 must be rotting away in an archive somewhere as I do not recall seeing that
