Corvette Grand Sport

[Jeremy H.]

Do all of the Grand Sports currently have the 377 in them now? And which one(s) of them had the early 427 put into it to race? Just bought a book about Corvette racing at Bloomington and talked to Dick Gulstrand about it and the book. In the book there is a picture of the penske gs with what looks to be an L88 in it. Anyone have anymore pics of this car with the 427 in it?

Thanks

Here's a photo of the Penske #001 with a Traco L-88 taken three years ago when Rob Walton owned it.

Those TRACO engines are a thing of beauty - All Business!

Thanks John for sharing that with us.

Yup - Rob didn't have to finance it.
