The guy finally called back about the IRS car and since it is better to say nothing if you can't say something nice about someone.....nothing. They guy couldn't tell me the year of the car, who made it, he thought it was a Backdraft (which I could tell it wasn't) and finally accused me of being a tire kicker when I told him I needed to know the manufacturer before I would know if I was serious or not. Thanks to the great guys on this board (and my "Help me identify this replica thread"), we decided it is probably an older Shell Valley Kit. Thanks guys for the help!

I went to a car show this weekend and spoke to a retired airline pilot that had a really tricked out BDR. He was a past SPF owner too so I spent an hour with him going through the pros and cons on the two cars. He also gave me some good local contacts that could help in my search. That is the fun part of this search....meeting new people and talking about your (and their) passion with them.
