thanks for the reply. This car is an "unknown" in the Super Sock AMX ranks. It has been around awhile and had a lot of factory correct parts. these parts were sold to the current owner of Nat Thompson's AMX-1 (You can see the hood in a background photo www.amx-1.com)

Tom,
I have been reading through your thread with great interest. I've always
liked these cars. The Pratt/Souder car is local to me. Chuck runs that car
on a regular basis at Quaker City. If you do not get any info beforehand,
when the season rolls around, I will gladly check it out for you. The
stickers on the front bumper in the two pics you show are different. The
sticker in the recent pic is a "Drag News Bracket All-Stars Dart Kill
Sticker." It may be running a 440 Chrysler now. I know there is/was a white
AMX that showed up at Quaker often running this combo.
