the Brand X at Lions... thanks Larry W! (not what you sent, I know, but, really cool and gleaned from that video) This was a combo of Kurtis, AK miller, a junkyard Corvette chassis, and Dougs headers

Jack Lufkin and his “Brand X” Corvette

 13:1 compression, Isky 505-C cam, Hilborn port fuel injection, a Mallory Mini-Mag fired the mix, and a special set of square-port headers by Doug vented the exhaust.

Kurtis’ shop built the custom body, which was meant to be a replica of a ’62, but the proportions seem all wrong. That’s because it was treated to a 6-inch channel, and the lower edges of the body tapered inward towards the full belly pan.

 ran a 193.44 mph class record at the salt,
 nabbed the NHRA quarter-mile speed record in the BM/Sp class at 131.95 mph, 
 and the NHRA half-mile record at 151.51 mph.

Lufkin worked with Ak Miller, whose engine building skills and talent behind the wheel made him a fierce competitor in virtually every form of wheeled motorsport

The foundation for this race car was a ’60 Corvette chassis Lufkin found in a JUNKYARD. He drilled lightening holes wherever he could, and had Frank Kurtis (legendary Indy car builder, among other things) construct a beam-axle frontend with stock spindles and brakes and an Indy-type torsion bar suspension. Lufkin retained the Vette’s rearend, swapping ring-and-pinion gears as needed—tall 3.08s for Bonneville, 4.11s for the half-mile drags, and 5.12s for the quarter.

It was subsequently sold to Doug Thorley of header fame who campaigned it Modified Sports classes.

it's often true that the story of a car is cooler than pictures of the car... because in this story, Ak Miller played a part

Ak Miller in the Cobra Kit Special on Pikes Peak, 1964

Ak Miller, and the five-time Pikes Peak winner's new Cobra Kit Special, which was actually a Devin body adapted to an AC Bristol chassis, all powered by a 289 Ford equipped with Carroll Shelby's Cobra engine package. 

He finished second in the Sports Car class to Bobby Unser's mid-engined Lotus-Climax.

The first man to put a Ford V8 in an AC chassis to go racing.

 Famed California “Hot Rodder” Ak Miller had completed the project with an AC-Bristol sports car (same chassis that would be delivered to Shelby months later) he’d acquired to run on the dry lakes east of Los Angeles well over a year before Shelby put his deal together with Ford and AC to build his cars in limited production.

Bill Devin rarely sold Devin SS bodies. They were only sold to racers like Ak Miller and Dave MacDonald.
