I took this photo at the 2016 Santa Fe Concorso. The gallery entry reads:
1964 Chevrolet Corvette
Owned by Michael Johnson
of Santa Fe, New Mexico
This 1964 Corvette is one of 38 so-called “tanker” cars built with a 36-gallon gas tank to reduce refueling when competing in road rallies and special racing suspension, large metallic power brakes, and a 3.08:1 ratio differential. Two women special ordered this car in 1964 for use in road rallies. This Ermine White example is equipped with the most powerful 327-cu.-in., V-8 engine ever produced, a fuel-injected design rated at 375 hp. This car has a rare leather interior and power windows and is the only known “tanker” built with this combination of options. This original, unrestored, 27,000-mile Corvette was recently driven in speed trials at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, reaching a top speed of 156 mph.
