From John Gordon:  "Early 1950's aluminum bodied racer?  I purchased this car earlier this year north of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.  It was reported to have raced at Mosport.  The car appears to be factory made (i.e pressed aluminum dash, hinges, hood release, roller gas pedal etc.) but to date I haven't been able to identify this car." 
  

More from John:  "The body, at some time in its life, was transplanted onto a 1976 Corvette chassis. The chassis was elongated to accommodate the body. The firewall was damaged and there were no identifying #'s or markings." (6-30-08)  From John Gordon:  "I was hoping you could add some additional information to my listing that might solve the mystery.  The car measures 156 1/2 inches in length (1/2 inch shorter than an Austin Healey 3000)! with a width ranging between 66 & 68 inches  (original car)."

"The body has been modified:  The front wheel wells cut to accommodate the Corvette tires; headlight pockets cut into the front fenders; aluminum gusset plates added to widen the rear end; the windshield frame is not original; an aluminum rear bumper was added;      Honda steering wheel etc."

"It has many features of other early 50's factory race cars and its distinctive "parrot's beak" front end hopefully will help solve the mystery."

"The car is left hand drive and the rear lights and front turn indicator pockets appear original."

"This is a rendering of how the car might have looked in its glory days."  If you can help John identify his car Please email me!
