That sounds right to me. In otherwords, this fathom green SS396 car SHOULD still have the rear panel painted black.

As for the 9737....Where do you find 15" steels and what would the codes be? Should be rally wheels....I like the pic of the "test fit half quarter".How and why would you use a POS repop to test fit a NOS panel? Apples and oranges.My guess is the repop is on the car...Nice car, but far from correct..I ain't buying the stories..

Sure it is.....But this car has steel wheels and dog dish caps....I like how the proper codes were found on the short block noting it is a 375hp block.....But previously mention the block was decked when they found it.... Neat car even better fish story....

Again, the customer wanted a more stealth look and opted for the steel wheel look...did we say they were correct numbers matching to the car? The proper JH code wad found on the block. However, you could not see a date code. Maybe the JH stamp was deeper than the date code and did not come off when the block was decked....I dont know what happened for sure. But I guess you do and thats what makes it a Fish Story!!!

Unfortunately we cant help what pictures Hemmings places in the article. We initially begin to install 80% quarters when the owner of the car purchased GM full quarters. Again, Hemmings felt the need to leave that picture out. Let see a picture of your car coming together so I can pick it a part!
