What if they are original dealer-owned/sponsored race cars that don’t need to be restored? I think you all know my answer to this one!!!

Appears to have started life as a 396 car but such a sweet car. A little More Deviation from stock, I’d presume being a SS Vs a stocker but still so cool! |

Small World...that Mustang Cobra Jet,pictured above,was a local car up here in Ottawa and was owned and raced by Dave Benn and I had a chance to buy it around '73 or '74.Dave worked for a local Cottman Transmission shop and I met him thru a friend.I had just sold my '71 LS5 Camino and was looking for a new ride.I went to see the Mustang and the deal we discussed,if memory serves me,was around $3000 to $3500.00.Dave would install a " more friendly" street gear in the rear and take his name off the body but leave the snake and decals on the car.I thought about it long and hard but I figured that the car would be a cop magnet if I drove it on the street and I was a die hard Chevy guy!I bought a '65 Corvette instead.Wish I remembered more details about the motor and transmission but I don't.Dave sold the car and bought a Camaro and was sponsored by Leftley Motors in Rockland,Ontario.

67 or 68
Notice this car has wing glass doors so it’s a 67. It also has front and back side markers, so it’s a 68. If you pay attention to some of the old photos from back in the day you see this.
