I took two dozen photos of this hoping to shake the owner out of the bushes to chat...
no takers

Rick, sorry I didn't get to meet you. Was there all day Friday then came back Sat am. I was the guy walking with the Stinger Hood over my head !!

I would have loved to be a fly on the windshield listening to that chat.

I was there too...looking at the dealer installed 427 Chevelle....think they had that font in 1967 on a typewriter in a dealership in those days???

That is some interesting dealer paperwork on that '66 Chevelle stating "supply and install L-72". To put that solid-lifter engine in front of a Powerglide just seems wrong and I can't believe that the dealer didn't advise against that.

Weren't there a few factory 427 PG Corvettes in 66 or 67?

I would also figure if there was a dealer that "made several" of these 427 conversions he would be on the map and not an unknown...

The car is NOT an SS with the 136 VIN, the entire story is filled with hen's teeth.

Kasey, this had already changed hands and the guy would not even talk about doubling his money. Sorry pal, I tried!!

Seems I said this a week or so ago Rick - "Man, you do get around."

Maybe I'm still living in the dark ages, but I gotta ask - how does he get the Red smoke? Put residue of some sort on them or are they built that way. This enquiring mind wants to know

+++ Chris +++ Thanks

for trying, just think all that space in the back, you could put a couple of 427's in there, then I'd show them what a Corvair can do with alittle " Horsey Power ", but No matter, they would still Laugh

at the overall Look's of the car....

Thanks again for trying.

Absolutely, but not behind the solid lifter (ie, "hi-perf") 427s...

I think 390- and 400-hp 1967 Vettes had the Powerglide as an option? Not till '69 was the auto available on higher-performance Vettes?
