Gene Henderson was the driver of the SX/4.
This was a Production class car meaning 6 cyl motor and rally prep.
Back then rally prep was usually a cage , belts,emergency gear and underbody protection.
The Plymouth arrows and Saabs evewntually made the car uncompetitive.
Gene also rallied a full size wagoneer.  Known as Moby .

Sorry for the old bump, but I don't suppose that anyone knows how to get in contact with Gene Henderson, or anyone directly involved with the build/running of this car?

Not that I'm aware of, but NIck would be the closest person to it to date I think.... I'd still like to see where this car is now.
