The first McKee MK1 Chevette discovered!

[Casey]

Hello,

Recently I took a McKee chassis with a Lola T70 body on it as a partial trade on a race car I sold. I was happy to just get a Can-am car to restore and vintage race as that is what I would REALLY like, but can't afford to just buy a really nice one.

I am delighted to find out that is is the first car Bob McKee made. The Chevette! The car came in 3rd behind Jim Hall and Roger Penske in the Chaparrals at Meadowdale in 1964. See picture.

If anyany knows more about my car's history in some way or has any pictures of it , please let me know.

Naturally I will need to fabricate a correct aluminum body for it, but it is also missing the rare original fuel injection. Factory prototype Rochester cross-ram side-draft mechanical fuel injection. Crap, like that is easy to come by.

Any ideas on a similar fuel injection system that could be had? Side draft Hilborns maybe? I guess I could put on side draft webers.
