Also as far as I know there was not a single factory installation of the 426 for the Hurst.
Are there any pics of that 66 letter prototype somewhere ?
I've never seen a single picture ever.
All of the 501 Hurst 300's left the factory as 440 hardtops. I believe Hurst (or a custom shop) converted 2 of them to convertibles for Linda Vaughn with the 9' giant Golden Hurst Shifter platform for her to stand on for races, shows, and parades.
I don't know for sure...all I'm saying is that I saw this car in a magazine spread (the Hemi 300 Hurst), but it very well may have been done at an aftermarket shop....still looking..

Could even be George Hurst behind the wheel I guess.
