250 Testa Rossa Posted Thursday at 09:05 PM Posted Thursday at 09:05 PM Recently, I found out that Clippinger Chevrolet's sales manager, the late Bob Wingate was really into model cars. Not sure if any of you guys know about him and the custom one-off 1967 FSO Corvette that he owned while working at Clippinger, but I would really love to find more information about his car models. The only thing I have so far is a single page from an old magazine (I think Rod & Custom) showing his amazing collection of dealer promos. Please let me know if you have any other info. Thanks 1
Mark Posted Thursday at 11:18 PM Posted Thursday at 11:18 PM There were several parts to those articles, covering different makes through 1962 or 1963. I remember reading somewhere that he sold all of the models in the late Sixties or early Seventies.

250 Testa Rossa Posted yesterday at 03:40 AM Author Posted yesterday at 03:40 AM Yes. I would love to find pictures of more of these articles. I know one was in the September 1961 issue of Car Craft.
