Dedicated Day 2 Thread

Sam and Bill, thanks for the compliments. The car ran great for 1968. Even with the COPO car tuned and headers added, I think it would have had its hands full with the bird. It's hard to tell because automatic cars never seem as strong as a four speed one all things equal. There was a guy around with a '68 4 speed Chevelle that he had a 427 transplanted into. Beat him by about a car length. The weight difference probably made the difference. They were close. Wish I had the car back but after seeing it in September '68 the car just fell off the earth.
