I am the current owner of this car and I'm trying to find some history behind it. Here is what I know. The car was purchased in Kentucky where it was stored in a warehouse. Previous owner bought the car in Alabama. The original car was a 57 FI 3-Speed Arctic Blue with an assembly date around 1 Apr '57. It was raced under the name Orange Peel. The engine was replaced for racing and the hood was modified for a larger engine. I've attached a couple pictures. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Joe
