Looks like the carb had that funky shooter into the secondaries - common for the period eh? I see them in the old mag articles about Dana, Motion, etc...

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif WOW! I'm off line for a couple of days and look at what I've missed! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

Congratulations Steve and Jeff. Great find! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Good to know it will be in the hands of the "Best in the Hobby" ;...... both owner and resto shop! Hope you can save most of those 'Day 2' pieces; that's what makes these finds all the sweeter!!!!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Nice Work Jeff & Steve. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif Can't wait to see another SCW masterpiece. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

------What a story!!! To top it off the parts sellers are not going to make much off the restoration. There dont appear to be any parts missing at all. Long time owner looks like a good guy. Bet he will be making a few trips to the 48 for various shows. Be neat to see him make a pass in his car once or twice.........Bill S

So the engine installed by Dana was an no Vin '69 big car LS suffix L72/M40?.

Jeff,great find! Is that what made you so interested in Dana Camaros? Congrats on the purchase Steve. Will be a sweet ride when done.

Compared to that other carport LS6,it's remarkably solid for having been(relatively)exposed to the elements since the Nixon admin..still wearing it's black plates too! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

SS mentions that in his original post, an April '69 conversion.

.....Included in the paperwork that Bert got when he bought the car was a 2-page detailed Dana Chevrolet work order/invoice that listed all the conversion parts and labor done to the car in April, 1969....
