Yes, this is the original car. Yes, I saw it at Garlits museum many years back also. Dana bought it from Garlits.....Not sure I understand the "won't sling any dirt" comment, whether he is on this forum or not? Dana is a very good friend of mine. I shared the pic with him, of the tribute car, and said it was very nice.
There is some issue with he and Garlits, it has something to do with the purchase of the car involving the engine. I don't bring it up, because he gets real uptight talking about it, so I don't ask, and don't tell.
Remember, there are always 2 sides to every story, even if it is Don, someone I admire dearly.
