Default Re: 70-71 CAMARO BB 4SPD

I do love when people quote selections from books written by experts that later prove to be incorrect. One of the best was the Mopar expert books that would consistently state that the nose cones on the Daytonas and Superbirds were made of fiberglass. Absolutely incorrect. They were all steel from the factory. One writer back in 1969 assumed they were glass before ever seeing a real car in person and then every book writer from then on quoted his assumption for the next 30 years even though everyone that owns/or owned one knew better. But you couldn't convince the experts otherwise until you literally rubbed their noses in it.

Hey, does anyone remember a time when no one believed that a 69 Camaro ever came with an aluminum 427?
