I do not remember seeing the frame but I have one of the plastic plates that say the same thing. These were available at any of their many Super Chevy Sunday car shows around the country.

Super Chevy used to give those out to anyone who entered their car at a Super Chevy event. Should be an old piece. I don't think they have called it S.C.Sunday in a long time.
Does anyone know when they started these events?

Funny, I went three years in a row with a car and they never gave one to me!

I believe it was 1980 in Indianapolis but would have to dig out my Super Chevy magazines to verify. The very first event we drove to was SCS in Indy in 1983 and went the following two years as well.

I remember them giving out the frames at events they had at Bristol. Came in a plastic bag with some other goodies.

I remember when bikers used to have that on their shirts or a decal on the bike.

I'm going to use this one.

I had one Kevin but I had such a bad experience at their event I tossed everything when I got home and never went to another one. It wasn't CC that PO'd me; it was the cops in Indy. They would beat on your fender with their night sticks to get you moving through traffic. I also got a night stick in the back of my neck when I decided to Walk rather than Run from their police/dog line. I turned around and looked at him and the dog. With fire in his eyes he said, &quot;Just try something, please just try something&quot;.

The first Super Chevy Sunday events were just that --&gt; Sunday only events. The first ones were run twice a year at Orange County International Raceway (OCIR) in Irvine, California, one in the Spring and one in the Fall. I believe the first year was 1980. It ran at OCIR until it demise in 1983. I Think it went nationwide that year.
