Does anyone have information or pictures on an American Chev Nova that raced in England either 1963 or 64?
It competed at Brands Hatch on May 27 of whichever year and won, just beating the Jag of Roy Salvadori.
Then at Crystal Palace on June 11 it was beaten into third by Salvadori and Jack Sears in one of the Equipe Endeavor 3.8 Jags.
At Snetterton for a July 15 meeting, it equaled Mike Parke's lap record and attained a top speed of 142 mph on the straight. Unfortunately the American driver, whose name is not available at this time, crashed heavily at the hairpin before Graham Hill took John Coomb's Jag onto victory.
