Car as found. Prior owner had it for 15 years and started restoring 15 years ago, but never got far!

trim tag.

Underside of hood. Previously had mesh screen on hood vents. You can see X marks where screen was attached. Identical fiberglas hood to another car I own.

Oh, one more clue. I found it in LA. Still has the original black plates on it. These were the emblems removed from the original fenders. There is a lot more to this story as well!

Car was originally blue. When you scrape down to original paint on the body, you find the blue; also when you scrape down to original paint on the hood it is blue as well.

X-Southgate race car with nos front fenders pulling a boat.
Looks like the real deal. Nice find.

Yeah, but they wouldn't throw the boat in with the deal. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Guess you can't get everything!

interesting car! the trim tag is really loaded with options.
Does it have the original steering box? If so do you notice anything different about it?
Try to get NICB on it
