Who knows why, but it's accepted that the exhaust has orange overspray from the engine painting. I think this is a real L89 car.....So cool........... </div></div>

you're right, but how did it hit the manifolds and not the heads(?) is the question at hand....odd. </div></div>

'67 Corvette BB's were the same way - non-L89's (including L-88's with aluminum heads) had the heads painted, but the heads were masked off on L-89's (only 16 were built), and the L-89 was the only '67 BB Corvette with chrome valve covers. Must have wanted to give the owner something to show what he paid the extra $368.00 for. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
