    :Welcome:

    Congrats! That is an awesome find! Frank and I believe Earl Branham both saved their cars when they were on the way to the crusher. Both are super nice cars now. As stated, true Sprints have a RB trim code. If it is a factory 302 car, the 5th character in the VIN will be an F. For example, your VIN may go something like 2K91F100000 if it is a factory 302 car. The last 6 numbers are the serial number and will be unique to your car.
