trying to locate

a 1966 442 that was here in the Chicago area in the late 70s-early 80s. A little background, the car was a post model, painted candy apple red with white panels on the sides. Inside the panels were painted with a cobweb effect.Original 400 engine built to w-30 specs with tri power. The car had Keystone Klassics/t a radials. Black interior, buckets automatic tranny, with a dualgate. The hood had an l-88 cowl induction scoop molded in and rectangular, quad headlights. This car was built by Tom Bowen of Bolingbrook, Ill., then sold at auction in Chicago, were I believe in went to St. Louis, Mo. I don't have any pics of the car, but it was in one hardback, coffetable style book on custom vehicles years ago, where it was the centerfold of the book. I know it's a long shot, but I knew that car pretty well, and Tom was a friend of mine, so I think about it every once in a while. Perhaps some of the "old timers" around here have an idea? The car also was an ISCA car with the name "The Candyweb" Anyone else around the Chicago area remember it?
