1968 Corvette number 94 was piloted by a renowned group of drivers including Dr. Wilbur Pickett, Bill Bean, Tony DeLorenzo, Mo Carter and Gene Felton. It is a product of Leldon Blackwell's successful experience as a crew member of the well-known #57 1968 Corvette race car known as 'Rebel.' Race history includes 2nd at the Daytona Presidential 250 in 1972 and 16th overall at 1973 Sebring. Leldon's team built everything from the chassis to the engine themselves. In one of its Daytona appearances, #94 was clocked at 217 mph, a remarkable achievement for corvettes at the time. Their success prompted Chevrolet Engineering to utilize the car as a test bed for transmissions and rear ends. The easy shift of experimental transmissions proved especially helpful in reducing driver fatigue during a long distance race. Restoration to its 1973 Sebring configuration was handled by Corvette Repair Inc. of Valley stream, NY.Also photographed at :     | Site Map | Contact | About Us | Terms Of Use / Privacy Policy | Links | carAuctionValues |
