Wayne has got a sweet collection of vintage mopar. He is a regular at the Pavillions and exercises a different one nearly every week. This car is quite impressive in person. This is a 4 Speed, 4.10 Dana, 6 pack built for speed. No PS. No PB. All Go. Original drivetrain + documented with a BS.

Question for the Mopar guru's. Wayne just had the lift-off hood redone and had "organasol" applied. It provides a very ruff, flat patina (with a fine gritty material) surface which can not be cleaned by normal means - he uses a paint brush to clean it https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif .

I know I'll sound like Cliff Clavin from Cheers, but here goes: They were produced that way from the factory, not for esthetic reasons but because the fiberglass technology at the time was so poor, they could not paint it a glossy finish without having major seams and imperfections showing through.

Bill( Bilede)- I hope that all goes well for your father in law...We'll get together sometime soon. You take care...and call me if there's anything I can do. I'll Pm you my number.

Sam- Thanks for the heads up on that car...Getting old is hell. I forgot almost immediately what that car was.
BTW, isn't Wayne the one who owns the yellow Road Runner Hemi that Charley liked so much...you know thw onewith the dust trails on the side?

Bill S.- Thanks for the complements. I think that I probably have more useless information stored inside my head than you do...at least your is cool information and stories! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif What stored inside my brain is anyones guess...I mean...do I really need to remember my phone number and address from when I lived in Huntsville, Alabama in 1966?

Steve Sandlin- Thanks again...the car ran Smooooooth! I hope that you got everything in order with "Car" in tow...judging at a car show has to be the pits...that's why at the 'little' car show that we had...we just had a peoples choice award...there was NO WAY I was going to get involved with judging cars... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Kasey...thanks for the compliments, too. There are still a few remaining bubbles...hopefully it will cool off soon around here. I will address them at that time https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

njsteve, your explanation for the blacked out hood is correct, but that is just the <u>engineering dept</u> speaking. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...thumbsdown.gif
The MARKETING guys explained the flat black paint as being a "No Glare" surface, so that the sun wouldn't blind you when driving. This was from the AMX ads, but the Mustang and some other cars also had flat black paint on metal hoods. The concept came from the Air Force, as an aid to the pilots. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/scholar.gif

Here's an example of a flat black anti-glare panel as applied to the prototype Convair YF-102 "Delta Dagger" interceptor. Anti-glare panels were applied in the days when military aircraft were left in their natural metal finish from the factory. You can imagine the sun reflecting off of that new aluminum skin and creating all kinds of visibility problems for the pilot.

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ne54Deuce1.jpg

The F-102 was fondly known as the "Deuce" by its pilots.

Re: Pavillions 9_24_05-The Chevelle is Back!
 

Yes, you're absolutely right on the anti-glare panel comparison. Chrysler took an engineering minus and turned it into a advertising plus.

Re: Pavillions 9_24_05-The Chevelle is Back!
 

That's what marketing is all about, making something into a feature and then adding a benefit.

Do they have a for sale spot for cars at the Pavillions?

Re: Pavillions 9_24_05-The Chevelle is Back!
 

Suart, no for sale signs visible on the car at pavillions but there are people that put for sale signs or flyers on the seat just inside the vehicle visible when someone finds your car appealing and looks inside.

Re: Pavillions 9_24_05-The Chevelle is Back!

Bruce, thats cause I already bought it.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif I wish. actually I saw one for sale about 18 months ago I believe. was black on black but don't know what happened or where it went but will keep an eye out. was an t400 by the way..

Re: Pavillions 9_24_05-The Chevelle is Back!
 

There was a black/black LS6 El Camino Turbo 400 that won Super Chevy Pomona a few years ago. Car sold for $40k and went overseas. Overseas buyer was shopping the car at $70k about 18 months ago. The car was a frame-on resto, color changed from white to black. It was a very nice #2 car.
