i was just stating that these cars were done by ac at the factory. yes there were many cars modified to the "cut back door" or "wide hip" body and some are still being converted to this day or into coupes. i was using the information available in the new rinsey mills book. the book does list "race car" vehicles being built but it specifically states "wide wing race car" also. what differentiated the "race car" and the "wide wing race car" other than the cars having the wide wings or flares that dictated using the cut back door design i don't know but 'computerworks' seems to have the same numbers i do?

p.s. i also believe that all the "race cars" that were ordered from ac were shipped to "sai" to be completed.
