Phil Hill -- Porsche 550 Spyder

From From author and historian Michael T. Lynch:   "#2 550 is Phil Hill, who retired".   Your webmaster has  never heard of Hill driving a Porsche Spyder before.  I'm sure there's an interesting story here.  Comments:  Please email me!

From "MotoRacing Volume 1 #11:   "Phil Hill, also racing a Porsche Spyder for Johnny von Neumann (first time in his life) was forced out on lap 17 (of the under 1500cc. race) when a shifting fork bent.  He did not go in the big-bore (main event)."
