Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

I'll play, just because I love this &quot;day 2&quot; stuff. Here's my Chevy II with the &quot;poor boy street racer&quot; look. Black steel wheels and chrome lugs. Lots of folks just pulled the caps for the &quot;racer look&quot; back in the mid-60s when they could not afford wheels. See the vintage '62 409 pic on page 2 of this thread.

It has a 327 under the hood and a Muncie 4-spd on the bench that will be replacing the Powerglide in a month or two. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

I'm thinking I need a set of chrome reverse wheels and piecrusts on the rear.

I have just run across some day 2 Mr Gasket valve covers that I have never seen before:

Anyone know anything about these?

I am guessing pre-69 as it has the weird breather cage, but maybe the other side had some sort of adapter that allowed the cap to be twisted on. Unfortunately all I have is pictured

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

Love that Camaro, the Vette, and the Chevy II.

Cannot get enough of that Day 2 stuff.

Vintage Mallory Rev Pol transformer (coil) nos in the box. Neat piece. Every &quot;day 2&quot; car I ever remember used to have a Mallory Rev Pol ignition. I have never seen one of these NOS before. I currently have it listed on ebay.

I think he was saying it is currently a powerglide and it will be sporting a Muncie shortly. Nothing like rowing the boat!

Correct. Powerglide is Boring in a street car with the tall first gear, although highway on ramps can be fun when it kicks down into low at 40 mph. I fully expect it will be a whole different car once I get the M20 installed. It's in pieces now - Autogear case, GM 26-spline input, etc. Should be assembling and installing in the coming months as soon as I find time.

No cool back story i found it in a old timer's garage while buying something else. He said mid 70's mail order probly from Gratiot auto supply .. I almost missed it it was upside down filled with magazines and catalogs including this old Gratiot catalog ... Its most likely A&amp;A it is not as heavy(thicker glass ) as the other one (pictured below) i have so its was a racer grade version or latter .. It is very cool !!!!

Doesnt AA fiberglass scoops bolt on

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

Not sure if anyone has seen the latest Car Craft, but they have a really nice 68 Camaro with a near-perfect Day Two look.

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

The &quot;Grump's Group&quot; Camaro is a neat. Most of the old school stuff like the Cragar and such are modern wheels, but they have the old school feel. I don't want to be too down on the &quot;vintage&quot; parts but the over-all theme is good.

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

I can't decide if I like this look or not. Old Mickey Thompson Sportsman 29X12.5-15 on American 8.5 x 15 T-70. Both wheels and tires need a major cleanup. Any opinions?

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

Looks GOOD&gt; are you running the Same type of rims in Front? From what I see in OLD magazines a LOT of the FASTER cars had missmatched rims&gt;Your car with those Rims in back looks more WESTCOAST style- eastcoast cars usually ran cragars or keystones..Either way it makes you Car look COOL!I like that look-Mudflaps IF you can find them are PERIOD Perfect..

Thank's for the replies. I think Sam told me what I wanted to hear. The black car needs some chrome. I am going stick with the Cragar's currently on the black car. The T-70's with the M/T's I am going to restore and put on the blue Camaro. The Torq Thrust style works best for me on a lighter color.

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

Sounds like a good plan to me! I know back 40 years ago or so when I went to change over to mags on my 69 nova, my parents said come on Sammy that dark blue nova you have needs a little chrome. I Can still hear my dad saying those kind of things. Needless to say I went with the Cragars and the H70 Schenuits on the back. I will never forget those days.

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

All my dad told me was to get that P.O.S. out of his driveway!!

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

HAAA! I heard that a few times too.

Re: Dedicated Day 2 Thread
 

I made a new day 2 look for my Nova this year... I bought some M&amp;H Racemaster cheater slicks and mounted them on my Cragar wheels... Plus a couple other modifications, Hurst/Gabriel Drag Shocks and Dick Harrell leaf spring clamps.
