there are only 10 known surviving cars. Most were wrecked on the track and a real one is worth a lot of cash. Advertised hp on a side oiler with 2 4's was 425 but dyno'd over 500. Dearborn Steel Tubing did the conversion for Ford. Starting with a Fairlane 500 2dr post Hi-po 289. The first 10 were maroon and the remaining cars were all wembledon white. I have seen a surviving car. I also was real close to finishing a clone when a guy had more money than I could turn down.
Charles Crites @ Crites restorations in Ohio is the only place you can buy all the correct parts to build a clone. Great guy.
