I am... do you know anything about this car? I called and talked to the current owner (a confessed Chevy guy) and had a nice conversation with him but he doesn't actually know much about the car...hmm?!

Yes, I know the car somewhat.The engine was built by Jerry Stein. It was sitting in a yard when the currant owner got the car as part of a tree job he did on the property. My friend went through the carbs and adjusted the valves.The seats were beat uo so he redid the seat.He also turned down $15k because he sees real MW cars with great racing history goin for big bucks on Barrett and Mechem.I would,'t pay more than $15/20 K due to some rust issues and being a clone,

What 'rust issues'? I figured it's a clone and I noticed (in the pictures) it's got 4 bolt covers but does it even have MW heads? There's a video on-line that also shows what might be a bondo crack in the paint on the passenger side. It could be a decent NSS car when gone through, but you're right, $20K would be tops.

Really Dwayne?! Gosh, I thought it might be varnish remover (no doubt it WILL remove your varnish) or a Gunk carburetor cleaner replacement...the smell WOULD be a great replacement, nonetheless!
