I'm MoPar through and through but give me a break.

I have a theory on how the nascar combo got accepted. The bodies in white were production pieces unlike the A990 cars. The factory may have shipped the bodies and single 4bbl motors to the teams but all the paper work went through a dealer making it appear as a production assembled car sold through a dealership.
If anyone knows for a fact I would like to hear the story.
