Re: My new L78
Thanks for the comments and shifter pricing guys [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]
Mosport, I hunted high and low and from state to state trying to find that car. I ended up having to bribe an ex-GM executive so he would let me into the secret hidden archives at GM to search through the records to find a Red on Red L78. Then I broke into the National DMV records to find out who owned the car. Then...OK, OK...I found the car on ebay [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

Re: My new L78
mc25t190, where did you find your red/black '67 SS/RS L78? The reason I ask is a good friend of mine sold one (red/black vinyl top/black int) back in the late '80s. He had it for many years and I had the opportunity to ride shotgun a few times. To this day, that is the quickest street car I have ever been in [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

Re: My new L78
Thanks again guys, you're too kind!
New: No, that car was Black and to be honest I had considered buying it from Bob, but at that time we had a Union come into one of my plants and I couldn't get away to look at it. It did seem like a very nice car though - Black on Black RS/SS with tach and gauges. Jon: Yes, we've got a few things to correct - like replacing those awful red heater hoses [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] DrDave: My buddy who drove the car said he couldn't believe how hard the car pulled and this was after it has basically just sat there for who knows how many years! I am waiting to hear back from the Son of the first owner who raced the car the few times it was out to confirm times etc., but his father said it did 13.0 in the quarter and 9.0 in the 1/8 consistently. I wonder what it would do with Pete or Rob tweeking it a little [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]
