Wow. I remember Manhattan Speed. They were in my neighborhood. I knew the shop owners very well, but never seen that car.
There was a 60's Cuda that was running with Ronnie Lyles and the Mutt Brothers though. It was lightened to the max. Not sure if that may be the car.

I took my car through many evolutions, many of them experimental. An easy way to see the last version is the hood scoop. A small snorkle scoop was used for a couple of years. With the huge torque of the engine, traction became a problem at some of the non-NHRA tracks. Soooo.....I moved the engine back ten inches. This required a snorkle scoop that went right up to the windshield. Hence you can tell the difference.
