Awesome car, and a moving story. And great owners (past and present)! Congrats, Charley.

That induction setup is fascinating, with the crossram hood being converted to 1x4. For the uninformed like myself, what was the reason for that being offered? Was that the over-the-counter workaround before the production steel cowl hood became available?

If so, was it available from the get-go when the cross ram hood came out, or was that someone's creativity later to figure out, "Hey, we can fab up some parts to make this hood work on a single carb."

And was that snorkel-less air cleaner specific to this set up, or was it available later with the regular steel cowl hood?

Can't image there are many more of those set ups known to survive. This is certainly the first one I have ever seen.

Congrats again!
