Need help identifying this car

[mtml427]

I am attempting to identify the body fabricator of a CSX. The current owner believed it to be a Kimmins body but after speaking with Bruce Kimmins the nose/mouth does not seem consistent with Kimmins construction. The MSO shows the car's birthdate as October 2002. The nose appears to have evidence of some scratching (possibly indications of welds) running left to rights as-well-as evidence of a vertical weld. This would indicate the possibility of a four section mouth/nose. Would anyone know if this is consistent with one of the other aluminum body fabricators supplying bodies to Shelby during the 2002 time frame?

Your best bet is to contact SAI with the CSX number, they should be able to provide where it came from.
