I don't see a Caplinger either. McCarthy lists the Swiss Cheese Cats as
* Blank
* Royal
* Thompson
* Vanke
* Van Winkle
* Unknown
* Beswick
* Union Park
* Seaton
* Unknown
* Packer
* Blank
* Collingwood
* Milner


So I guess its one of the 4 that doesn't have a delivery name already. The 1st 12 cars were silver, the last 2 gray. I should add, in the text McCarthy notes that though the Swiss Cheese engine code was a 389-2bbl, the 421sd was actually installed at the factory. Still a long way from the NHRA minimum 50 though.
