1959 Corvette XP700
A 1958 Corvette was modified to be the personal car of William L. "Bill" Mitchell. First, in 1958, it received a special rear
end of duck-tail type, which was incorporated in the regular '61 Corvette, and the front end was redesigned to look almost
like the one of the Oldsmobile F88 '54 show car. In 1959, the car was modified again to became a real show car: longer
rear end, new front end with smaller air intake, new transparent roof with a periscope in the middle of the two bubbles.
