The Jalopy Journal
It kind of surprises me that the guy who had it didn't think to try selling the frame instead of chopping it up. Of course maybe he did and didn't...
I agree with you on all of this except ET wheels. Fortunately Holley hasn't got their mits on it. Scott Russell and his wife own it....
