Nigel,

I'll make this real easy for you. Crawfish was a chapter in my book and became a good friend when we worked together last year. He told me about the car and it being shipped away.I'm pretty sure he said it was a restoration, not a replica. Best way to find out is ask him. You can reach him at 386.677.7258, or at 1077 Roberts St., Ormond Beach, FL 32174. Tell him Perry Wood sent you.
