What was the $35.00 Special Handling Fee?

Joe, my 70 SS 396 nova had hood insulation. The deuce didn't. I got caught in a 1-2 inch snow with mine the one and only time it ever saw snow. I was the most useless car in the snow I've ever been in. Step on it and you spun, let off, and the rear end locked up. All you could do is kick the clutch, and steer.
On the insurance, I even told my agent it said Yenko on it. He looked through his book, and couldn't find it, so a 300hp 350, non SS it was. Don was right on the ad where it said "easy to insure".

The special handling fee was charged for security guard service to protect the general public from these monsters. (We don't get much snow in these parts.)

That is an old photo from about 1972 so I still had the stripes on it. After that, the stripes started to crack from the sun and water started getting under them and causing rust. I had to take them off, sand and prime ane re-paint the car after that. I coldn't find a stripe kit anywhere so it stayed "plain Jane" until last year when we completed the restoration.

Wow, I didn't realize how expensive those cars actually were in 1970. Great paperwork and cool snow picture.
