Dave McGarry's La Dawri Daytona

The car has a metal plate on the firewall with a serial no A386477 it has a solid axle front and what looks to be a late 50s corvette rear suspension with a ford 9 inch rear end no motor or trans.  The last owner said he bought the car complete...not a kit.
I bought a car I thought was a Devin kit but on the bill of sale the owner gave me it said he originally bought the car from Les Dawes in California in the early sixties to race it in New York.  Also on the bill of sale he called it a Daytona which led me to La Dawri.com
I bought the car about two years ago and the man I bought the car from passed away shortly after he sold me the car.
