1961 Chevrolet Impala 2DR HT NASCAR Race Car
This Car may be Driver Rex Whites Original Car.
It has Been Restored To Be Like His Car.
Now this Chevy has been Updated
For Show and Track Exhibitions.
It Has a Modern Racing Removable Steering Wheel and
Updated Seat Belts and Seat.
It has Disc Brakes All Around and a
Fuel Cell Inside the Trunk.
They used to fill the '61 NASCAR Race Cars
through the filler in the back of the deck lid.
Very dangerous back then.
What could possibly go wrong?
You will see The Underneath
Has a Racing "Patina" With Period Fixes and Repairs
from Racing Shunts.
A Couple of Small Pin Holes Exist Underneath
a Corner on the Back Rails
But Not A Major Issue.
It Has a 3 Speed Manual Transmission
Which Might Have Been the Original Correct
Heavy Duty GM Pickup Truck Unit
Before They Went to a 4 Speed
As The Early 4 Speeds in That Era Had Syncro Problems.
It Has a Super Strong 327 CI V8 Motor Now
Rex Ran a 348.
It Has 5 Lug Hubs To Accommodate
Disc Brakes and Rex Was One of the
Last Drivers To Go From 6 Lug Truck Hubs to 5 Lug.
They Can Be Changed Back.
Being as Primitive as this Construction is and
Some of the Pieces that have Escaped the Changes of Time,
We Feel This Chevy is a Real Vintage '61 NASCAR Bel Air
and the Last Example.
There Is Good Reason to Believe it Also
Might Have Been Rex White's Car.
One of the Top "Forensic" Experts on
Vintage Race Cars on the West Coast,
David Tom Has Seen the Car and Verified
"If it is not the car, it is one of the cars",
as the Car Spent Some Time on the West Coast.
Of course it went through many hands and drivers
after the fact before the recent restoration.
"IF" this was one of Whites' Bubble Tops
through GM docs that don't exist,
the value of this car is compelling and
over six figures.
We believe it is but have to price it to be fair.
The car is Beautiful and Brutish At the Same Time.
The Main Attraction At Every Car Show and
Has Won Acclaim Over Vettes, Street Rods,
High Dollar Mustangs, GTO's and Even Ferraris.
The Last Car Show We Entered It Won.
Selling on Bill of Sale but has a VIN and
Could be titled perhaps if one wanted to.
It is a Race Car.
I Have Many More Pictures and Information.
This Car Belongs in a Museum or
Valuable Race Car Collection
Rather Than My Garage or
Seen at Vintage Races.
At least someone who can bring it to
Car Shows which she has won as mentioned.
How much is any '61 Chevy Bubble Top worth?
There is a Book Out About Rex White Called
" Golden Thunder".
The Car or Cars Are Mentioned and P ictured.
