Re: Ray Skillman Collection
 

Pretty impressive collection. I saw the picture of the '66 Bel Air and had to check it out. The website says it was a frame off. I'm sure it was, but I wonder about some of the detail work including why an L72 car has a 6k tach in it. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

"His website says the white Camaro is a 396/350 horse"

Interesting.......as the tach sure appears to be the one year only L-78 6500 Redline/7000 Max. Please correct me if you SEE otherwise.

Chuck,
While it's not conclusive to me it sure looks like the 6500 redline format tach in that car.

Re: Ray Skillman Collection
 

I wonder what the 1970 white Camaro SS trim tag looks like, do you think there could be an L78 stamped there? The cars are nice but the descriptions are somewhat vague. I would like to know more in detail about each car.

The white Camaro SS also has CKO on the head and low-rise 569 intake. Pretty neat color combo...

I had the twin to this in the late 70's early '80s' except mine was a 4 speed (also RAIII)...Man I miss that car.

I bet when you have that many nice cars in your collection they probably don't even mean that much to you anymore. Just another car. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Sam,

I would strongly disagree...and I know that if you were to meet Ray....you would agree that he is indeed very passionate aboout his building, his cars and even more importantly the people that work for him. Ray is in his sixties....and he can do circles around most of us.

Dan.
