What was a TII C6 proto doing in Denver CO to begin with?

I ran it in Mod 100 and mod 110 in the 80's

Parts is parts. Look closely, has an X cowl and a pre-Twister SSM by the rear seal lack of bosses. The prototype piece is the mid itself.

It was a T2 not an X cowl. Had flat face. Just had bunges added. I had a 1:1 & 13:16 lower.

Now I see the pins now.

Everything was a prototype back then. Hi-Perf was constantly changing. Engineering was deleting or adding improvements on a month by month basis. Rare items today were not thought of, as rare in the 70's...it was just part of progress & the constant improvement race.
