Notice that this S&M car has been updated with '69 header panel, hood and grille shells in this pic. Would this have been a legitimate Super Stock car or might it have specifically built as a match racer, Modified Production entry or very early Pro Stock car?

Some good points made here...I'm thinking Chrysler told them to build one for the car show circuit to promote the brand...but it could have easily been put into action after the car show stint was over...Anyway here's another one of Sox & Martin's B029's with different decal placement on the front fenders.

Liteweight, just noticed this...is this the point you trying to make earlier about the rear bumper.

This S&M Pro Stock car appears to have '69 header panel, grilles, and hood too but the blue / white hood paint is reversed from the S&M Barracuda shown at the '69 Detroit Autorama and in the Plymouth promo photo with Ronnie and Buddy.
