If all the other factory aero devices both good and bad are allowed why would you have to take off the factory fender skirts. I would assume you could not add custom ones but the car comes with them

Good answer Dave and I agree. I'm speaking like the "old" guys would have. All the 50's cars I or my parents had did come with skirts (not aftermarket) Our 55 Ford and 55 Olds 88 come to mind. But if

engine swaps are allowed as long as it is the same manufacturer. you can put a big block in the vette or an eco-tech 4 banger for that matter. at least that is how the rule reads to me. Dave

It has a 67 hp gas motor in it along with the 16 hp one for low speed in town driving. I don't see the issue. How much power did the Berkly have in relation to Bonner Dentons car? Dave

Dave, My understanding of the rules in the production classes is the engine has to be the same design. So a C5 corvette can not use a big block because it never had one installed stock. Might be wron
