In a conversation with Dick, the 70 car was brought up, but I really don't know the answer to it. Dick told me he converted the 68 stick car. He said he remembered the nightmare his bodyman had getting the 70 tail fitting after he cut the 68 off. The front was all bolt on.
There are holes in that theory tho, which I can't explain. He is known to have owned only 2 original LO cars when new. One a stick, one an auto. Both cars are documented today by Dick, & have been restored. But yet, if you look at the Car Craft All Star Decal on the side glass, this is a decal from 1968.
I believe he cut up a 68 car, but what car did he cut????
