HEMIMOOSE, I think my car was street driven, and it came with the steel front end, just like the red car did. I dug up history on the red car and talked to a few previous owners. I was told that the car was bought new, then within a week, the original owner ordered the aluminum nose and had the selling dealer install and paint it. The car was first street raced in Scarsdale and Ossining, NY area, which is quite hilly, and the steep geared orange monster won most if not all challenges in the early sixties.
