1955 Sebring (DNF) as shown in the 1956 Sebring program and the June 1955 Car Life Magazine Sandy MacArthur and Paul Gougleman:

"1955 was the last year of the privet entries. I had entered, and been accepted with my Bandini, with which I had pretty good success in 1954. I went up to Carl Kiekhaefer, of Mercury Outboard, and Tried to buy the Stanguellini that he had bought from Briggs Cunningham, the car Briggs won with at Watkins Glenn.  Carl bought it to find out why it was so powerful and had blown it up one the dynamometer, so was not interested in selling the car - at least at that time.   My second choice was to buy a Merc. 40 cu.in. outboard to put in the Bandini. That really got Keikhaefer interested and during the winter Mercury Outboard completely rebuilt the Bandini spending about $4000.00 preparing it for Sebring- such as building a new gas tank, all new brakes & lines, and installing their latest racing engine.  I co-drove with Paul Gougleman, a former high point SCCA driver in a 750 Nardi, whom I had gone to school with. We met at the track with a rolling machine shop, squads of mechanics and helpers, 3 airplanes flew down from Wisconsin with Carl and other Merc big wigs. In the race the car went like a bomb, and we blew off the Renault team, our class competition, and were leading an index of performance, when after 4 ½ hours the Fiat 500 gear box failed".
