THAT IS THE ONE FROM ABOUT A MILLION YEARS AGO, WHEN IT HAD THE BLOWN 427 IN IT? IT USED TO HAVE A HEMI 265 FOR A LONG TIME

This is it before Mark owned it. I purchase it with the chop completed, and it had been set up for a twin overhead cam six Jag. engine. Hence the butchered firewall. It had huge rear gaurd flares to cover the Jag rear end.
These were replaced as seen in the photo. I don't know who did the original chop but amount of work that successive owners have put into it, it may have been easier to chop one from scratch.

This is it as it appeared in a magazine years later, and since then I think I've seen a pic where an original dash and firewall were re-fitted.

Mark Plummer sold it to Andrew from Tecoma and he had it for about 10 years before it sold to Tassie. Last I heard the guy from Tassie was giving it a full rebuild but that would have been two years ago
