Note the SS 350 grille emblem in the top photo. Started with a 350 car and swapped-in the L-72.

Has anyone seen Nickey center caps for the Cragars in recent years? They must be priceless.

BTW: Yes, I'll take an RS and a non-RS please.

Have to ask whats up with mounting the traction bars with the brake line running between the bars and the leaf springs. Would think that just asking for trouble

I just noticed that the RS has the wire wheelcovers in one photo! Looks like both were drum brake cars.

Yeah, that brake line routing is definately questionable.

Looks like an e-brake cable guy's.No place else for it to go and lay right ...Been down that road...Who makes the bars? Just looked at a set of the same on a 69 Z,old school pieces....welded to the factory spring plates..Cool !
