Bud is looking for info. and race history on his 1958 Devin Corvette Special

I have a Devin Corvette Special, that I got from my nephew after he acquired a Devin SS. It has been raced on the vintage sports car circuit by my nephew and apparently others. The engine is a 283 Chevrolet with 4 Stromberg 97's and a close ratio 4 speed gearbox. It has what appears to be a GM frame highly modified with the drive-train angled to meet the 3rd member not far from the right rear wheel. American magnesium wheels and Dunlop racing tires. Rack and pinion steering and drum brakes all around. A 12 gallon fuel cell for 112 octane leaded racing fuel and Halon fire suppression system. It has an accusump system to pressurize the oil galleries prior to starting. I would like to find out more about this car and it's racing history. I'm told that it was featured in a sports car publication several years back.

Thanks,
E. H. Bud Knight of Solvang, CA

It's a Devin special with a SS body and possibly a Canadian chassis. The front and rear suspension is E-type Jaguar.
