Came across someone trying to locate this car...has anyone ever seen it or know where it is now? Early 50's SCCA Special, last seen in the Long Island area, this particular car was popular on the Bridgehampton scene in the early 50's. This car was made up of a hodgepodge of parts, fiberglass, aluminum, bondo! a true "Special" it had a Lea-Francis 1.5L motor in it, last seen in the early 60's in Long Island in rough used shape may be red now and most likely in rough shape maybe with a small block motor now. Maybe sitting in decay in a barn near you. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
was at Jim McGee's shop in Watermill in 1980's believe it went to collection in Mattituck soon after ,BTW picture above is not bridgehampton
We know the Special landed in aviation museum after McGee's shop but it seemed to disappear after that point.. any help would be much appreciated
was In Parker Wickham collection at Mattiuck airport in early 1990' http://suffolktimes.timesreview.com/2011/04/11929/friends-family-remember-one-of-mattitucks-finest/
Thanks. I met Mr. Wickham back in 1999 when he welcomed the LI Jag Club to tour his facility and car collection. Pretty amazing place. However, the trail for the vintage racer has gone cold since it was there last.
