I'm sure its long gone. After the campaigns of Grumpy, the Kimball Brothers and the owners after the Kimballs, I doubt it exists. It was a 396 block, and I think the car was run with a 427 by Larry and Gary Kimball, as well as Grumpy. Larry stated to me "We never lost to a Harrell car", and they all had 427's in them, however, they both also ran in GT2 which may have been with 396 motors.
Larry sold the car in the early 70's and repurchased it around 1990. He sold the car to Dana Mecum around 2007. I'm sure Dana wouldn't mind opening the hood whenever it is out on display, to see what is in it now.
I'm left wondering which car the TO0303MQ 7N193075 came out of? It must have been another Pace Car convertible, or a Chevrolet Engineering test vehicle. Maybe an NCRS should be run to determine this, unless someone on the board knows and can answer the question.
