Bill Sherwood -- Ferrari-Chevrolet
Northern California Corvette driver Red
Faris bought this
car from Stan Sugarman
after the July 15-16, 1961 Cotati races. Faris raced the car himself
at Vaca Valley Raceway on August 19-20, 1961 but didn't like its handling.
Fellow NorCal Corvette driver Bill
Sherwood then became its "Designated Driver".
Sherwood raced the car for Faris in Northern
California during the rest of the 1961 season and through all of the 1962
season. He won his only overall victory at Vaca Valley Raceway in
November, 1962, after Stan Peterson rolled Bev Spencer's Maserati
Type 151 in Turn 1.
Faris sold the car to another NorCal
Corvette driver, Danno Raffetto,
who raced it in NorCal events
in 1963-64.
Michael
Callaham has driven this car in historic races since 1985 with V12
power.
