The funny thing is that he was inside buying braided line fittings and the like, presumably for carb lines - didn't want a fuel leak. Hey, whatever it takes to enjoy the hobby the way you want to.

You can't possibly believe those tags belong to that car Sam?
I heard that the original keys are rusted out [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: Day 2 Chevelle
 

well I know you can now use old tags from years back in Pa. Stared a year or so ago. If he had classic tags or antique tags long ago before the rust he could have changed them for the 66 plates without taking any pictures. But who knows.

Did you find out what driveline it had?

Cool looking ride.

Cross breeding back then was common and acceptable. My Mustang has a Grump lump and I have seen at least 30-40 Ford cars with Grump lumps.

L-88 scoops where on just about everything back in the day. The Hemi Superbird in the Otis Chandler collection had a L-88 scoop molded on.
Just as nearly every mopar and Ford today run GM style cowl hoods and no one thinks anything about it

All cool cars Whitetop, but there is something special about that little Falcon. That's one of my favorite 70's cars for some reason, and that looks like an ISCA/World of Wheels show.

Yeah that Falcon was at the very first indoor show I ever attended as a kid 1977, and it has influenced my taste to this day..wild paint, lots of chrome, high stance and wide Cragars sticking out 3 inched out of the quarter panels and tunnel rams.

It was fresh at the show and I can still remember the paint smell coming off of it..I'm serious.

Re: Day 2 Chevelle
 

LOL, I know that smell well (my dad did body work and painting in our house for 30 years).

Wonder where it is today?

Re: Day 2 Chevelle
 

Isn't that the superbird that David Spade just bought at mecum?. They said that car used to have custom paint.
