Forgot to add 'The Cookie Duster" to the list. Original automatic car, converted to a stick.
I spoke with the original owner of this car a few weeks back. He still has the original MSO when he purchased the car new in 68. Great, great guy to talk with, that really enjoyed racing that car. He even pulled the Xram off it & installed some Hilbornes in 69?

Sold it in 71 sometime, to a couple guys in Maryland who blew the engine up. He doesn't know what happened with it after that.

Go back to post 1152 and read in that area. That's as much as I know about this one was what I read there.

Google Soulful Strutters racing and you may find some more info.

One report was it was rebodied .

Another was it was parted out.

Another that it was scrapped.

One of them is probably true.

I have NO idea.

The last time I saw the Rivers car, it had the original mso and vin tag. The car had a lot of original parts but definitely rebodied.
