1956 Corvette SR2
 
Attended an NCRS sponsored event at Champion Motors, Syssoet NY today. Guest speaker was Al Grenning. While there, Kevin Mackay owner of Corvette Repair was doing a photoshoot with his customer's 1956 SR2. Real treat seeing it in person and up close, one of the rarest Corvettes ever built: Paul Winvoices

Awesome pics and subject, thanks for posting Paul!
Is this the SR2 that originally had a lower fin and did those parts survive too?
Seeing Jim Jeffords name, this must also be the SR2 later sponsored by Nic>|ey and the orignal Purple People Eater car?
:beers:

I got to drive it at MCACN a few years ago. I could look at that car all day.

I was there too. Would have been nice knowing another member was as well... oh well. Al Grenning presented a trim tag, vin tag and engine pad that was on another level. The backdrop was Champion Motors which is a high-end exotic dealer/storage facility. Wonderful super cars. The SR2 was some site. Amazing machine!

Sr2
 
Now, I think the one we have seen being sold by Corvette Mike's may be the other one still around. That one was listed at $6.8 million. This is a nice video he produced when it was being listed. Engine compartment and air filter configuration different. Not sure if one has 2 carbs while Mike's had 1?
