This is a 375HP turbo 400 car I purchased about a month ago it's going back factory, sorry you day two guys. The car blew the 396 in 1972 and sat till 74. It then got a small block, Thrush side pipes,Keystones, air shocks with on board air pump, green flex fan, Weind finned valve covers. This is how the car looked when I received it a moth ago still with only 30,000 miles. The owner only put about 5 thousand miles on it the last 30 years.

While out boneyarding today I found five Keystone wheels I am thinking of using on my 72 Nova if they turn out not to be warped wheels. I noticed one wheel had A Keystone Classic cap and another read Keystone Raider. What was the difference between Classics and Raiders? I'm sure someone just swapped caps so I really don't know which type these wheels are. Any of you guys got some good close up photos of these old wheels?

Tommy, your car would look way cool with Keystones. Especially if the back were bigger than the fronts.:ie F70 frt. G60 bk. Schonye

Keystone Raiders have rounded spokes - they look for all the world like a quasi-Cragar SS. Klassics have square-edged spokes with flat tops and sides. I purged all the pictures of the Raiders I had, sorry. I know someone is going to post a pic of a Klassic-equipped car any time now....

I have a picture of a matching #'s 427/425 Impala that a friend of mine used to own with big n' little Klassics , if I can get my scanner going I'll post a pic.
