Thanks for the additional input. I had not thought of tracking down some books, so thanks for that. I have always liked the hot rodding approach of dare to be different, so I really want to build a replica/tribute car that is different from the crowd, yet true to an actual car. I really like the look of CSX3002 and Ken Miles CSX2431. I love the front shape and nose of the 289 cars with the wide fenders and attitude of the 427 in the rear. I know this is not going top be an easy project since it will be a build that is not mainstream. Lastly, does anyone know if ERA has an email address? They show a USRRC kit, but I could not find a way to contact them via email. Thanks again!
