Were all these cars (250 GT SWB Aluminum body) competition cars and the others "Steel" for the street?

Wow is that poorly worded.

I have a list all 250 GT SWB which list some as "competition" the others as "street." In my database I have "California Aluminum Racing" and "California Steel Street." (borrowed from Mercato, thanks go to Wayne who doesn't seem to post here anymore).

So question is does Aluminum Racing = Competition and Steel Street = Street?

I guess I should read my post below. What a mess, always conflicting information about these damn 250s.

The information you have on these cars is questionable, at best !

2 you mention were never built as Alloy Body Racers at all.

PM for accurate details.
