Didn't know that "Clockwork Orange" is your car. Very cool car that I remember pretty well.
I wanna say that car was never cut up, was it?

That '68 picture must be from the late '70-early '80s before they killed that class,

The Joe Sedlko Chevy Nova on page 32 is a former Bill Jenkins car. Pretty sure it still owned by same guy and not for sale.

Marlin, I gotta think finding a good used or NOS cowl hood shouldn't be that tough. And I also gotta believe that I am not the only one to own a former race car that was hiding in plain sight. There has GOT to be some of these old cars still around that are repainted or restored back to original or to an owner's preference. Eddie's two cars are examples, too, although I cant speak for how he found them or what they looked like when he did get them. Brent's COPO is another one, while is was cut up a bit, there was enough remaining to make a positive ID. NorCam's former Kym Miller car was still being used as race car if I'm not mistaken. Usually, race cars were stored indoors all week long and only out in the elements while being raced, so it is possible that some of the cars that are being found with good sheetmetal COULD be old race cars.
