If you click on his photos it still has the engine in it. Can I have what looks like the GM fiberglas crossram hood ? What a cool find.

It seems like a neat car. I would do a PA title search using this form:

http://www.dmv.state.pa.us/pdotforms...rms/dl-135.pdf

The single Dupree pump will barely supply enough fuel for 250 hp. If the car was a drag car, hopefully you can get more documentation on its racing career and previous owners. Pics of its early configuration would be very helpful.
Who knows what Joel actually has for records. I would advise you to do as much homework so that you can make a plausible case why you believe it could have gone through his shop. Pay the documentation fee if you care to validate your suspicions. Otherwise you’ve got a neat old drag car with some interesting history to research. That would be enough for me to enjoy. Good Luck!

I don't see anything to make me think it is a Motion car. Can you post a pic of the tach ? Can I have the whole car ?

- I can't say without a doubt. The whole car is cool and weird all at once. The engine pad is 0116JH which is probably about right for an 02D car, but I haven't gotten to the oil filter pad to check for a VIN. The car is in storage, tightly packed next to other 69 camaros so I will get to it asap.

Charlie,

Yes, it is an original GM fiberglass hood which is one of the reasons I bought it. I'm friends with Bob Harris so I will have him look over the car as well. I will get a picture of the tach asap.

pxtx:

Thanks for the PA title info link. I will see what I can come up with. Attached is the oldest title I have so far, dated 12-22-71.

I agree, seems like a dual fuel pump would make more sense. Again, I'm just not sure what this car is, but it is definitely not a plain jane.

The PA 'Request for Vehicle Information" form states that information is available for the past 10 years only. Any guesses as to how accurate or truthful that statement is? Any other source of title searching? I have back to 71 and likely only need to go back one more title to get to the original owner, assuming it is a different owner than the '71 title states. Anyone able to do an NICB search? I used to be able to get this done but am having difficulty now.
