The web site had someone indicate Proto 5 was white and destroyed after 
crash testing.

Prototype 5 - Acrylic White Body. Automatic transmission. Used for crash 
testing, Phoenix, Arizona.

Here is some other information.

I just spoke to Herb Grasse. He is reviewing the pictures again; But he told 
me that the dash on all prototype cars up to Vin 001 were custom made. This 
one is stock. He also noted that they never stamped Proto on any of the VIN 
tags.

There was only one red production 4-speed car.

Until someone that really knows what to look for sees the car we cannot know 
for sure.
