I think you're right, it isn't the original, but man, that fire breathing FE could set the SS class on it's ear. Those suckers made some ponies...........MP

originallty of the car wasn't the point (althought the book I found the car in says it is the orininal), it was around long before this www.superstockracingassoc.com and click on ss 80. RANKIN and WILD CHILD on the same vehicle, 40 years later, what are the odds?

I though I saw where the guy DID find the original, and restored it. Either way, badass ride for the local drive in on Saturday night. Kinda makes me want to go look for a Sunbeam Tiger, (poormans Cobra)...........MP
