[Shotimes] Looking for old information

[Ian Fisher]

Hey Mike

I have never heard anything definitive about such a
car. I know that the idea of something like that was
discussed here as more of a "pipe dream". ie. "what if
they used that engine in the 500, that would be a
great SHO successor." Perhaps it was discussed in more
depth on the V8 list?

Anyway-great to see an old name from the past. I do
remember you and that horrific accident. 7 years-wow,
I am getting old. I can't believe I still have this
car. :)

Good luck with the fact finding adventure. I'd love to
hear more if this car comes to fruition.
