"This is the only photo
I know of showing the SR-2 painted Purple. This was the first car named
"Purple People Eater" when Jim Jeffords owned it. This shot was taken at
Sebring in March 1958. Note Jim Jefford's with his back to us, and a very
young Augie Pabst leaning on the rear fender. Augie was a good friend
(and still is) of Jim's and was his back up driver for this race." |
