Today we were met with music from the late great Jimmy Buffet. It only seems fitting we honor Jimmy and his music this morning.

Thanks Alan

Mikes car is a '71 but on sheet as a 1970. Clearly 383 as Kens video shows a big block engine. I thought a typo originally on NHRA's part but Mike clearly states its a '70 on NHRA TV when getting best appearing award.

If it's as I think, '71 body and '70 spec'd engine, should've been in GT class. Hope I'm wrong....

Beautiful car and paint, but sad seeing this happen at Indy of all places!!

The car is a real 71 with the correct carb. The engine is correct.

I still can’t believe how perfect the car is.

I'm aware the car is a 71.

I just rewatched the video of the presentation and I didn't hear myself call it a 70. If I did I made a mistake.

The car is correct for SS/IA
