This sounds like a game,
Let me guess, someone is trying to recreate the car for personal gain...

Thanks for getting ahead on this, Herb.
Just as a side, that old 477 we got off you a few years back is still in Kevin's 71 Satellite, going 12.0's all the time. The motor is reliable, low, low maintenence, and constistent. It's a winner!! You guys did a good job....just thought I'd let you know.

The Grand State of Confusion-O...

...is it perhaps possible....that this cars existence could/would devalue the other S&M cars out there?? Perhaps that's why all the "stuff" about it not being a "real" S&M car???? Inquiring minds want to know the truth.... Throw it out there for ALL to see and let the MASSES figure out who's on first, What's on second.....

I guess the OP doesnt want to say what all this BS is all about
What this is "all about" is a potential scam. When items are mis-represented to give an inflated value, it hurts the entire hobby. I see no value in getting random people to "authenticate" a car, when it would be easy enough to get the people directly involved to do so. I don't think anyone could accuse Herb of not wanting to talk or help out in such a situation. He is probably one the most accessible individuals in the Mopar world, and would have been involved in the construction of the car. Yet he was not consulted on this. That in itself should raise a red-flag.

David, thanks to you and your brother for getting ahead on this. You are indeed right about your dad being accessible, he's never met anyone he didn't know. Great guy.
Whether it is a for profit scam or not, makes no difference to me. It's not the truth, and someone is attributing things that aren't factual for whatever reason. Ego, money, doesn't matter. Truth is truth.

All fakes become real over time, that is the real problem. In the vintage race car field (specifically old NASCAR chassis') so many fakes are out there that it has hurt the overall value of the real cars. A lot of people have gotten burned and they don't forget that.
