And rightfully so, Chuck.
Long way to haul it, but it would be a star attraction in a Day 2 display at MCACN...

Mark and Pete, thank you! I’ve been getting a lot of compliments on the body/paint. Especially on the gold!

Bill, thank you very much! That’s a HUGE compliment! As I previously mentioned, Grady’s car was a heavy inspiration for this car!!

Mike, I only have about 150 miles on it but the headers still look great! Bright white.

Mitch, I’ve been wanting to go to MCACN but have never been. I really want to get out there this year, not sure about bringing my car though. I plan on driving this car! I read about the Day 2 section on the MCACN website. My car would never qualify for that. Way too many modern components: exhaust system with electric cutouts, frame connectors, msd ignition, auto gear trans, moser rear etc… seems they’re very strict on keeping it real Day 2, which I completely understand. I’m sure there’s a class for the car but I’m not sure if I want to go through the logistics of bringing the car out there…

I will help you, right here, right now.

Wrong!!!

You want to take your car to MCACN, you will not regret the logistics and costs, and it will be the best weekend of your car life….. trust me I have dragged my car from another country twice and don’t regret a second, or a penny!!!

We all want to see this gold/gold beast!!!

Trust me!!!

I know I would love to be at MCACN... It's just a big expense to have the car there, I'm sure it would be a very memorable experience.

Anyways, here is my new acquisition. This is my 1967 Chevelle SS 396 L78. Many of you probably know this car. My father purchased this car a few years back and was ready to sell it, so I sold my 68 Camaro and bought this from him. This is the car Curt Biro restored about 12-13 years ago and showed the car at many national events including AACA and MCACN shows. The car has a neat history and is well documented with the original POP and what I believe to be the original drivetrain. I plan on driving this car periodically. The engine, rebuilt by yours truly and some friends, is rebuilt to stock specs, yes requires 100+ octane leaded fuel. Very fun to drive, loves to rev! For me, it does not get much better than this dynamic duo of 1967 Chevrolets.

That last shot is kind of an iconic one- the black tail panels and black/yellow plates on a couple ‘67s really pop together like that
