How did the shop acquire the prototype in the first place. Sorry about all the questions. Is there a story somewhere I could just read on my own?

Chevrolet commisioned the car. Gave them the parts + #074. They built it in 1989/1990. Showed the chassis at SEMA. THe car was entered in the Oakland Hot Rod show. It didn't win. It then was shown on the NSRA circuit and finally raffled off at the 1990 NSRA national show. Somewhere I have the name of the winner. I am not sure who owns it now, but it has been seen in the last few years at a Goodguys show.
