Now only if it had only been preserved in "as raced" trim...then you'd see some real heads spinnin' as it comes across the auction block.

Yeah, I'm a little partial to 'preserved' cars myself. But even if it had been restored to an 'as-raced' condition, PLEASE don't put vinyl lettering on it! The cars of that era were hand lettered with enamel paints and quill brushes. Although a little harder to find now, some of those guys are still around and still love to do things 'Old Style'!
A couple of F/C and S/S cars appeared at the past SCR's with 'Period Correct' lettering on them. To those two gentlemen I say THANK YOU!

Oops, almost forgot a little Z-28 too. Sorry Ken.
