    I have a Heritage Certificate but I am out in Calif on business and will confirm these details when I get back to my home in Kentcky where all my records are located.
    Car has apparent Track time from the 60's and 70's per the records I have as 3rd owner

    Car has fiberglass wings, top shifter with OD, competition full race cam, bored and stroked, oversize front sway bar and was a possible early 60's road racer but not proven. Original side shifter trannie number may have been 5765 but was sold in Calif in 2007 but OD had been added by a prior owner. I am either 3rd or 4th owner as there is a records gap from the 60's to mid 1970.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
