Heres a web page you can check out

LO23 is 100% for sure EL-OH23

Thank you Daryl, and everybody else who chimed in!

Sorry to hear about Arlen Vanke.

Daryl,
Check your PM's
Looks like that guy has a hot rod shop still. I'm hoping he has a good memory.

See you at the races,
Wayne Kerr

Need a forensic paint line expert. These Darts have similar paint lines. The only Jim Mattox I knew was a Texas Congressman who died in 08 at 65 I think. Could it be? Where is Mattox car? Phish

The post on Facebook said that Jim Mattox's son had the car and that the Hemi was sitting on a engine stand.

That was 2005. One cold one later Ronnie Sox wheeled up to bench race and consequently sign a couple of LO23s.
