I preferred Petty's short track car actually.

John Sandberg's awesome SCCA C/Prepared Solo II racer!   Read all about his car, along with my car, as featured in the August 2006 Mopar Action edition.  The car was raced with the SCCA Solo II program, and related other clubs, all through the 70-80-90s (then it was triple black)... he still has the car.

What's the purpose of the window netting?

[HP2]

Keep body parts in and debris out. I believe it was Petty's Darlington crash, shown above, that created the window net after his arms were flapping about outside the car during the roll over. He also added diagonal to the roof halo part of the cage that is still referred to as a Petty Bar by  some constructors.

I'm always surprised that AMC went with the Javelin instead of the AMX. Of course, there may have been wheelbase issues as the AMX was pretty damn short.

SCCA required the production version of the race cars to have a rear seat - NO '68-'70 AMX or '65-'66 Shelby GT350 in TRANS AM series
