This car was up in the Colorado area when it first surfaced. It has been "shopped around ever since. It is NOT repeat not an original H&M built A/FX car. The supposed "history has never been proven. For those of you not around in "the day" , these were a two year only racecar. This would be '65 and 66. In '65 some of the "drag council" ( Ford's drag team) members couldn't get a cammer and had to run a wedge. Tommy Grove was one of them in '65 and had to wait until '66 to get a new "long nose" cammer powered car. ONLY ONE Dick Brannan ( crashed back then) was built with a C6. With that rarity I have serious doubts that this was a "period car" for those two years. The front end construction is a much later configuration and the "bolt on ' traction bars would not have been used either. When it was first "shopped" it had Ansen Sprint wheels on it. They have either been painted or replaced.
"I" feel the "history" doesn't match "reality" . There is a similar "red" one out there with a small block and looks like it is from the same builder. When this car was "pitched" to me I valued it at $50,000 because of the cammer alone. the "seller" was thinking $90,000.
