"Mystery" Chevelle LS-6 in NEW Muscle Car Review???

[SS427]

Dave,
I could not agree more. I have seen a big increase in requests to "add" on a few items to the restoration such as Cragers, headers and Sun Tachs. I think restorations have excelled over the years and have gotten to a point where one car doesn't really stand out from the rest anymore. This has given people a new opportunity to venture down another avenue such as "day 2" cars. I recently located an old drag car that was still wearing all it's original '70's racing garb from the cool can to the welded on ladder bars and axel tubes. Rather that restore the car to original, I felt this would make a great day 2 car but in it's drag clothes instead of street clothes and possibly even racing the car complete with original sponsor decals.

I too must admit that searching out these old racing parts has put a lot of the "fun" back into the project somewhat like the good ole days walking through bone yards and locating that elusive part.
