My father Kenny Rose had the opportunity to buy this car in 1967 or 68 for $1,500 as a roller. According to him, it was parked in an alley near Kenny Warren's apartments. Dad told me that he was too much into building his C/Gas 55 Chevy with a Hemi to afford buying it. Dad did purchase a Hilborn system from Kenny Warren. I have the complete manifold & injectors with stacks, possibly from this very car. Dad also said that he saw the Logghe Stamping blueprints of the Virginia Twister FC in Warren's home. Dad often wondered whatever became of this car, of course wishing he had bought it!
