Jan,

    Maybe Jim can tell us if he still has the modified Alpine that was set
up for a 429. He was selling the car last I remember. This isn't his 351
Tiger you refer too. I think the 429 Alpine project was just another project
he was working on at one time. He had a rear end to go with it but it was
priced separately. Don't remember the brand on the rear. Maybe he was
building a drag car?
