    Hello !
    0442 M was driven at Sebring 1955 with #29. Did anyone know which colour the car have in this race. Barchetta wrote that the car was painted blue/white/gold. I cannot believe it. The only picture I found is this one. The color of the starting number is also a mystery.
    I hope you can help me.
    Thanks
    Klaus

    #29 is Sterling Edwards/Chuck Daigh, but isn't #26 actually 0428 M - as driven by Maglioli here?

    I think Taruffi's car was 0486M. You have one photo in the Burnside's book "American Racing".
