So what's the story on the rollover during the Cannonball race?

I gave it some serious consideration previously, it is a beautiful car but price 
is way out of my range especially for a car that doesn't really have any real 
coveted racing history, other than an SCCA logbook (which I have for just about 
all my cars so I can run local SCCA events).
 
There's lots of photos at Chuck's registry, including it's demise during the 
Cannonball Run in the late 90's (?) at which time it was still a road registered 
car. Most of the modifications appear to be mor modern. I'm not sure why it is 
now reputedly getting coveted FIA Papers.

race car, it would be worth taking a serious look at.  Lilo has material (log 
book) to establish its history as being raced, and it was accepted for the 
Monterey Historics a couple years ago.  I guess that makes it pretty rare.
