			Carmen got back to me today. He clarified the ownership history of the car and I've amended that in the first post.
 Grumpy > Heavy / Carmen > in between guy > Joe Algieri.
 
 I had chatted a bit with Joe and I covered some stuff with him a week ago. Here is a quick rundown of points:
 -He bought from someone in between.
 -He removed the hideway nose off the car (at this point I don't think it included the fenders), and sold it to someone in NJ. It was acid dipped and in rough shape. He ran Modified Production so he ran a regular headlight nose because the headlight had to work. He did not want to add the weight but had to.
 -Has pictured from when he was stripping off the paint (what color I wonder), and the Grumpy letter was underneath other paint.
 -He stripped the chrome off the bumpers and painted them.
 -He shaved the rear back up lights.
 -He removed the gas filler neck.
