Re: The CONVINCER II
The Convincer II in Sweden !
That is a factory HemiCuda in the far lane. I think that´s the one that caught fire at Santa Pod, England, some years ago.

Re: The CONVINCER II
I'll try to find Pete Dedella around Middeltown, NJ. Also will find the window sticker showing its a 427 M22 car.
PS. sc69sam has some Raceway News on his desk with this car in them. Lets see them Sammy.

Re: The CONVINCER II
John, I talked to Joe Spino yesterday about Brahms Chevrolet where he bought most of his engines and engineparts. I didn´t have too much to ask him about the "Convincer II", but I understood that he had built a new engine for it at one time and that the original engine was sold locally. He said that the guys who bought it "messed it up". He also said that he had replaced the internals in the rearend, so the only drivetrainpart that was original to the car was the axlehousing. When shipped to Sweden it had no engine and transmission in it.
Joe was supernice to talk to !

Re: The CONVINCER II
That Comfort Custom shot is a 68 Chevelle, not even the same car? Vent windows and grill (hint)
