Chassis: BHL 108
Built in 1958, chassis BHL 108 was delivered new through Carroll Shelby Sports Cars to Jim Hall. The Knobbly Lister was fitted with a Corvette V8 engine and personalised with Hall's initials in the grill. The monogram was removed soon after its Santa Barbara debut. Still in Hall's ownership, the engine was fitted with a Latham supercharger. For reliability reasons this was quickly removed. In 1959 the car was sold. The new owner continued to race BHL 108 in Libre events. During the 1970s it was already restored and it was vintage raced by most of its subsequent owners. Restored to its original configuration, it is today part of a prominent Washington based collection. BHL 108 is seen here in action during the 2007 Monterey Historic Racses.
