I will check with the wife/boss and see if it's possible. Have three kids, so their activities seem to take priority, I've found.
Is there a good resource for learning about the specifics of these cars? Not that I'm going to do a concourse restoration or anything, but lots of little things that I am confused about. For example, my car has 270 badges on the doors. Since my car was only owned by two other people, and I was told they are the original doors, I assume that is correct. Also, all of the L023 cars I've seen have carpeting, but several online articles (not always accurate, I know) state that carpeting was one of the things left out of these cars.
Any books out there I should get? I would love to see more pictures of factory untouched L023s. Any good resources for decoding the fender tag? These online decoders I've seen are a bit confusing as to where to enter each digit.
Finally, I am having trouble getting the car registered in my state (South Dakota), as the previous owner Jim Keyes said he never had a title to the vehicle, only a bill of sale, and the DMV here seems not to understand that this car isn't a typical passenger car and won't be licensed for use on the street. Did these cars come with titles? At least they have VINs. I'm told that todays factory drag cars (COPO Camaros, Drag Pack Challengers, Cobra Jet Mustangs) don't even have a VIN.
Thanks for any help, folks.
