That '55 might well have been Keith Harvie's; he had a primered one for a while after "Two Lane Blacktop" became one of the films of the time.
I had the experience of a drive in Mark Stratton's BSA Hustler. I remember borrowing Dave Riswick's crash helmet which was about three sizes too big. Okay when I left the startline, problems arose when I got speed up. As the helmet was a too big, the vibration from the car made the helmet do a 360 whilst still attached to my skull. Reached the finish line no problem, trouble was I'm on the wrong side of the strip harvesting some of Ernie Braddocks corn. Never heard the last of it, the crew fell about laughing when they notice a wet patch on the driver seat. Never again.
