I am actually friend's with Joe Spino who owned and built the Born Free car,and have also spoken to the owner of the Convincer II a few times. Born Free was a factory 427 car Joe said it was a Motion car,but also said it had a bone stock 427 and steel cowl hood when he bought it. It may have been a COPO. As for the Convincer II,it belonged to a guy named Big Danny. It was a factory 427 4 speed car. I was sold to somebody in New Zealand back in the day. I wonder where either car is now. We tracked Born Free into the mid 80's but lost track of it other then to say that it was supposedly painted brown and had a black v-top put on it.
