Thanks for the links, Jeff.
I'll probably not try too hard on this one, after all, it is a sad thing to know such details in the first place. The car had 10K and change on the odometer but looked to have been in the body shop more than on the road. I was 13 or 14 when I first saw the body, without engine and trans. Those had been placed into a dirt track racer running circles in Conneaut Ohio. I know more about the remains of the body itself. I heard the engine ended up with water left in it over the winter and broke the block.
