When I did legal research, I would always have to remind people "Everything is related to everything else". You mentioned a few important facts. No one has seen it. No parts are known to have been pulled and used other places that we know of. No wrecked hulk has been discovered. No images of it racing other cars has been found. When so little is known it only needs to be found. I have a few friends that specialize in finding stolen cars. What they have for resources are focused on finding cars and that is what I'm looking for. With my luck, I'll finish this crazy build and find it the next day. 
This is truly entertaining and fascinating. The fact you actually get to speak to the “MAN” is rare. I remember how much I was in aw when Ed was telling us the story of the Jackshaw Z-11 in Russes trailer at 42 dragway. Randy this is truly an interesting excursion you have taken on. Looking forward to this pursuit of happiness. Good luck and I hope you find the information you’re looking for. There is a big family on this forum that knows a lot about these cars, I only hope they’re willing to share the knowledge because once it’s gone it’s lost forever. I love it when Pat, Russ, and Dennis and others tell the stories behind their passion. It’s the little known facts that make a story. It’s funny how someone’s memory can recall a little known fact that is irrelevant to most but means the world to others.
LOL! I pulled up to their house and was instantly surrounded by 30 people asking me a million questions about my car and where my dad was as if it were his car. I told them I joined the club myself to learn from those who were doing what I wanted to do. They were shocked a freshman in high school wanted to learn all about full size 60's Impalas and clearly I was determined. They went over every inch of my car and told me what was important and what didn't matter, where to start and what to forget about. What they didn't do is keep useful information away from me. 
and tossed a Honda 4 cylinder or diesel engine in my car and would have made it a point to show up to every public meet I could to challenge them to a race. I would probably create a period correct looking paint scheme with large text saying something like "Middle Finger Chevrolet" My team logo on our shirts would be this guy
