Re: 1958 Corvette SS Bill Mitchell Car on Ebay
Well, let's just say that the guys who like historical, original cars are probably sitting this one out. Try punching up Victress, Valkyrie, perhaps Devin or ?? Strikes me as a modification of one of those bodies.
It sould be noted that the real SS was done in 1957, not 1958.- Top

Why the automatic transmission? Why no description or pics of the engine? Why are there cosmetic differences with the original? Just how did dad acquire the car? There are far more questions than answers here.- Top

In the smoky haze of the memory banks, I think Victress, Valkyrie (sp?), perhaps a Devin variation, Kellison (sp?) - but my subconscious says that it is a MODIFICATION of one of those.
By the way, in 1966, it was titled by CA as a 58 Chevrolet, Model CDCV867......Good luck with that transfer.- Top

I was informed that the chassis was a big brake set up which makes it interesting...and worth the present Ebay amount.

Well, someone thinks it's the real thing. It's been bid up to $70,000. That is assuming the bids are legit.

Re: 1958 Corvette SS Bill Mitchell Car on Ebay
If this is real....wow. I'd imagine the bidders know if it is or not. I have no clue. Are there any links to pictures and articles of the original 2 "mules"?
