Mr. Wangers said the car never had headers while it was with him, though (birth, thru end of August '64).
Yes, the car was cleaned-up and returned to Car and Driver specification by Scott Tiemann while I was looking after it. Paul Zazarine did an excellent write-up on this in the 12/08 issue of Muscle Car Enthusiast.

Wow, great info and thanks for sharing. I didnt realize that Zazzarine(RIP) did an article about it in Muscle Car Review. Ill have to get it as a backorder.
I do have another article that the car is featured in from MCR in which the writer says that the Goat was not in running condition and they had to push it around for the pictures.
Also, do you know if Milt actually stroked the original 428 in the late 80's? Just curious because thats what Milt says in his book.
Also, have you contacted Milt about the car or is that a very sore subject for him considering he figured Sherman would have notwithstanding his untimely death either given or at least sold the car to Milt for all he had done?
Thanks,
Don
BTW I saw the youtube video of you driving the Goat and boy it sounds & looks sweet! You can see the pride in Wangers as he walks near the car.
