The original fiberglass hood has been cutout, glassed back in and cutout again. The engine is a 471 inch wedge with 286 MW heads, 6-71 and Enderle hat. The blower intake is an Indy MW unit. The car had a Hilborn MW injector setup on it at one time. The previous owner didn't get much attention with the flat hood and MW injectors (short stacks), so on went the blower. Yeah, it would be more correct to have the injectors but it wasn't long before a lot of cars got the blowers. They were all obsolete after the flip-top cars came out, so there was a narrow time period there anyway. The fenders were probably done by Kemp Auto Body that did the paint. I was told they grafted in GTO fender panels.

There was some other Mopar parked next to it for a while at Garlits museum.
