Last shot...Hurst Camaro.


Reminiscent of the Hurst Trans-Am Camaro raced by Bobby Johns and Charlie Kolb in '67 with the Hurst logo placement like that. That car was gold and black rather than silver and black though.

Reminds me of the line in the movie "The Gumball Rally" when the T-bucket guy drives into the gas station and tells the 427 Cobra guys where the cops are waiting. The T drives away and Michael Sarrazin's character says, "That's the ugliest car I've ever seen."

In regards to Vegas.....It's a great place to spend a couple of days......When you look at all the effort and money spent on keeping everything neat and clean....The "Sleezy" side is throw right in your face walking down the Strip......The people (I'm sure mostly Illegals) lining the street every 5 feet handing out the little cards advertising rooms visits from girls.....they are very annoying and at the end of the night, probably 95% of the cards they give out are laying on the ground as Litter..........What a "Shame".....Just my $.02 as a once a year visitor........

Last year, my buddies back here challenged me to obtain a porn card with the name "Chevelle" on it. Not only did I obtain a Chevelle, but I also obtained a "Caprice" and some other car name I can't remember.

Sure did accumulate a stack of porn cards to get a Chevelle and a Caprice.

Looks like a Detroit 12-71 diesel but the bug catchers have me a bit confused - unless they're just for decoration. They are nomally direct-injected with unrestricted intake airflow. The Detroit 12-71 diesels came with two 6-71 blowers, this was the original application that hodrodders took the blowers from.

Yup, as I suspected, the bug catchers are just for show. In the youtube video you can see they are locked open when it's running. They're just being used as air cleaners. Normally there would be a large cast aluminum intake flange and tube mounted over the tops of the blowers and routed to an external cannister air filter.
