I have a Pit Models Overby Porsche 356 Speedster. It is Bob Overby's 2nd SCCA race car. He had two of them. I can find 1 or two photos of his first one, but the Pit Model represents his second SCCA race car.

Might any of the members have any reference for this car?

I have even gone as far as trying to contact Bob Overby himself.

That is one tough racecar to find...

There is an article on Overby in the December 1979 Porsche Panorama magazine that can be picked up on EBay. I don't have it so I cannot be sure if there are photos or not.
