My 68 has about 90,000 miles and does not look nearly as nice as that.
sad he had no family to pass it along to ,
Looking at the pics of the 427 car the chrome Offenhauser valve covers are NOT stock.. Stock ones were Chevy red sheet metal [;)]
there is so much "wrong" with that car.
Chrome alternator, chrome hood latches, chrome master cylinder cover.
Wrong fan, shroud, hoses and clamps, valve covers.
And if you think the odometer numbers are supposed to be offset like that....[:X]
It was sold in 2012......last two years someone fooled {not the correct
f word} with it.
Here is the correct engine. Disregard the three 2 barrel carbs and
air cleaner.
Not so on the exhaust side.
I spent 22 years of my younger life, restoring and also cutting vettes into race cars. Learned a lot of tricks.
Any one will tell you, about how bad the old 4 piston brake calibers were on them...can't imagine what they would be like after sitting 31 years like the story says. Bet dollars to donuts, the fluid in the master cylinder looked like a cross between 140wt gear oil and roofing tar.
There are 2 types of old hot rods.....restored and survivors.
That is a restored {and poorly done} one.
The V-8 Monza {262 ci} had 2 plugs that either you lifted the motor 3 inches or you pulled the tire and bent back the wheel well.
what ones had the L-88 motor?
67 to 69
middle of 69 the heads were changed from closed chamber [12.5 to 1 compression} to open chamber design {12 to 1 comp ratio} But the open chamber heads made more 'real' power because of better breathing.
here ya go [;)]
