Re: Is "stance" important?
I actually remember cars like this back in the day..not all Day 2 back then was good..one local guy had a 4 door AMC Matador jacked up just like that with N50's hanging out the back...it was actually a super clean car, low mile original paint car but he screwed it up.The car was immaculate but the concept was way off.

Is that a Motion decal in the driver's side rear window on that Chevelle? |
Re: Is "stance" important?
The Z28 is Burnished Brown. It was purchased from Chad B years ago and was discussed here as well. I think Chad actually sold it to Shane on an ad placed here.
Yes that is a Motion decal and the car and it's history are currently being researched. The second owner bought it from the original owner (who later bought it back and then sold it to Shane) and he was the one who put headers on it and raced it (and lost one of the build sheets!). We think the second owner maybe joined the Motion club but as of right now there is no reason to believe Motion ever laid hands on it. It is a low mileage original paint car and is in unbelievable condition. It was a known car for the last several years but the owner was asking way too much and Shane caught him on a good day. |

Re: Is "stance" important?
A little late to the discussion but yes, stance is critical. So many restos these days have tippy-toes stances because of new springs during the restoration. Ruins it for me. Camaros were higher than Firebirds because DeLorean wanted the Firebird to look wider (wide-track Pontiac, right?) so he had lower springs put on them. I had my Camaro in the shop last fall for some much-needed attention and it included a suspension rebuild with new, lower springs. Out went the single-leafs and in went Global West multi-leafs with a 1.5" lowering built in. 1" lower front coils and now the car looks really good to me. Lower and meaner, even for a stocker. (Gardner 'deep-tone' SS396 system went on too--look at those perfectly done oval tailpipes peeking down under the rear quarters.)

I know it’s a Yenko clone but every time I look at the aluminum motor and listen to the idle it works for me. The factory black 73 Z/28 was all stock but the springs settled just right in my opinion. With the blue 70 L78 Nova I just stumbled on this combination of 15x7 TTO wheels and P225/70/15 tires in front and P255/60/15 tires in back that did not rub and made the car sit a little high.

Mustangs and Camaros seem to suffer most from tip toe "new spring" syndrome. I'm REALLY happy with the stance of the original GT springs on my '66 fastback on '65 Shelby wheels...

Wow Tom, that Mustang is a keeper. Or sell it to me. I think it was Pat Ganahl who said there's one word to describe the perfectly done car: "Stance, stance stance!" |

Too cool Barry! May be gone but I saw this below linked Astro LS6 advertised up here in Canada recently. Don't know the car or what's real or not but may be worth investigating further? http://alberta.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehi...AdIdZ456641967 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete |
