    Looks like it must have been one of Carl Kiekhaefer's tow vehicles or shop wagon.

    Do you happen to have a pic of the emblem on the door? I can't make it out in the original photo.

    This is a track vehicle to keep the field of cars in place during the warm-up laps, NOT a pace car.
    1956 "Daytona" pace car was a 56 Desoto convertible, FYI the pace car did not have the Nascar logo, it had a checkered flag on its doors.
