Any of these cars would be a great tribute to the history whether street or comp. I would be torn between two of my favorites however the first would be tough to compete with:
CSX3020

Why?
Originally equipped 427 dry sump car with all the goodies, not S/C it's one of the few and proud true comp series, HD A-arms, all race equipment coolers and ducts, seat fits snug to my ass, sounds CRAZY mean, history with gentleman Tom Payne, and it match's my gorgeous red headed wife.
A very close second would be:
CSX2345

Why?
Unrestored and asymetrical to the tee, paint is bad, cracks, roll bar forward brace removed (history), suttle changes like steering wheel, dents, no doubt an original, and what a history.........to see this drift in corners will always be in my memory.
