"Mystery Car" -- Tim Hunt's Jabro-Oldsmobile

Tim is looking for information on his unusual car.  It's a Jabro which raced H-Modified in the 1950s, and in the early 1960s received a 215 cid Oldsmobile V8.   If you can help Tim Please email me!
 
  

From Tim Hunt:  "It has a 1965 Wisconsin license plate on it.  It was stored for years and then sold at the Hershey Car Corral in 1996 to a guy from Mass.   It then went back into storage again until I bought it this spring (2007).  I have no history."

 
From Tim:  "It was raced H modified with the number you see in late 50's.  In the early 60's somebody put an Oldsmobile 215 cu inch V8 in it along with a lot of modifications, and Dayton 13" wire wheels."  (Curious about what a "Jabro" is?  CLICK HERE)

  
This may be the first "H" Modified that I've heard of to receive a V8 engine swap.  (TM)
