I don't understand why the white engine bay paint unless somehow that was part of the prototype status (B.S.). One of my pet peeves is always seeing the AACA badges on cars that are half right at best.

66 Chevelle...
Nice looking car...sure has a lot of trophies. Not sure about the white engine bay...would be a nice cruiser for a summer day with the a/c on.
Question: Are the screw style clamps correct for the a/c hoses...?? I would have thought the factory would have used something different. -wilma

 Just take the hoses to a shop and get them crimped! Allow a good 1/4” for crimping expansion/extension. Yeesh!  Cheers Dave

Screw clamps were used a lot back in that era, but they had a tab on them for the installer to butt up against the end of the hose to position it in the correct location to pinch the hose on the barbs of the fitting.

This guy is more full of .... than a Christmas goose!
 One of one prototype??  K19 smog equipment in CA began with the '66 model year, not '67.
