was digging through some old pictures and found a couple of gems:
My 1st 1969 Camaro, taken in 1974 I think. It has the NVY 302 plates on it from my 56 Chevy. 307, Turbohydromatic, disc brakes, positraction, F-41 suspension & factory air (the car was "cloned" into a Z28 within 6 months after I sold it. One of those RARE factory air automatic 69 Z/28's).
Yeah, I added the Corvette Rally wheels with the 67 centers ...
I stopped counting but that was the 1st of ~80 69 Camaros I have owned over the years ...
The 1956 Chevy Delray, taken in 73 or 74. This is overlooking northern Lake Michigan in the background and I think it is Manitou island out there.
Engine: stock 302 from a 68 Z28 with a 62 Corvette FI on it. Note the "correct" fuel filter ... and the "correct" placement of the fender emblems on the prior picture.
We took it to the 1st Bloomington (2nd?) Corvette show:
and everybody wanted to know where it came from. (I replaced the plenum with an early 57 when we were there). I told everyone it was Zora's West Coast press car and was the prototype for the 57 Fuel Injection (I had a correct air cleaner on it as well). People noticed the one piece bumpers and the CA frame and bought the "story". We had it in the swap area and were selling parts as I recall.
