Have a whole three-ring notebook full, Sam. Bill Sherman liked to keep track of stuff (good cop, I guess!).

Did you notice the labor rate on the repair orders ? $6.00 an hour. Looks like it got a rear end and engine rebuild under warranty. That is the same flat rate we had at the Pontiac dealer I worked for in 1966.

Six bucks?! Guess Scott's dedication to authenticity only goes so far ...! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Would $349.45 have been a decent deal for an installed 428 short block circa 11/17/67?

Thanks, Anders!

Jim's book talks about a kid approaching them w/the song. They produced it w/studio musicians and it became somewhat of a hit. Then they had to "assemble" the band Johnny Bravo-style.

Jim had less hair then.

Pretty sure that Goat was CD Ron Monchak's (think he had one of the '69 T/A ragtops later on, too).



... btw, credit for the 'do wisecrack to the man himself. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif
