Default Re: What do you think of this car? Hemmings ....

According to the article it was done starting in 1996 ? Think back to how much we didn't know 11 years ago and the cars resto would probably seem fine. The car has a 8000 rpm tach and 11 years ago I would have thought that was fine but today I believe all the big block cars got 7000 tachs so maybe the tach was added ? We all know more about these cars these days but Dave has nothing to feel bad about. The article should have been published 11 years ago. I had my old L78 SS convert on the cover of Muscle Car Review in 1990 with a silver grill in all it's glory because a friend convinced me the SS should have a silver grill. Yes Daves car is very inncorrect by todays standards but please remember it was restored 11 years ago. At least he still has it.
