Yea.....Pos-o-tractions with Lakewood bars. Even has 4 degree wedges sandwiched in the bars. The car came with a blueprint sheet with all the "services Provided" and letter from Dick Arons (Booth & Arons)about the engine who did the motor for Bob Schmidt Chevrolet in Maumee, Oh back in 1970 when they raced the car (70-73). All the specs are there! BRC pistons w/.043 stainless top rings and more. The letter is even signed by Arons. And the cam? No, not .500 lift cam but a, get this, GENERAL KINETICS Cam. Intake 309Deg. .580 lift, Ext, 318 deg. .619 lift; 110 deg. C/L. I even had some old time slips from a race track(s) called Milan Dragway and Marion County Internt'l? 11.49 et/118.11 MPH When's the last time you say a Jerry Stahl Gear driven tach? It's in the Camaro!Going to post a few pics of when I bought from the 2nd owner. Thanks folks

Hey Jeff, We all like the car, but you are not getting down to brass tacks. You are jumping all over the board and not really answering any questions. We know who Dick Arons is. We know who Wally Booth is but.....we are not sure who you are and what makes up your hot rod. Maybe it is an old 6 cyclinder car that Arons raced in A/S with a 427 transplant.

It looks like a 12 bolt rear in the panel paint pic, so let's give him the benefit of the doubt that it's not a 6 cyl car. The grille is also black, but I only see it in the current pics, so that doesn't necessarily confirm it's SS status. A cowl hood is certainly not a common piece on an SS car though either, seeing as how few people opted to pay extra for it when they were getting the louvered SS hood for free. So I'm with Sam...not prying or anything, but inquiring minds want to know, is it a COPO, L-78, SS350 or what?
A simple pic of the trim tag info and/or engine bay would be worth the proverbial "thousand words." A very unique and very cool car whatever it is, so please just come out and say it already. ![]() |
