Bobby,
Outside of the 8-track and the Arkansas barn, I would swear you were decribing my car. Good luck on the hood insert, they can be found but are a minimum of around $500 unless you can find someone who doesn't know what they have. I look forward to seeing the rest of the cars info especially for the Z24 code.

By the way, you are amoungst friends here and you can admit this car is for you and not your 'friends', these guys are pretty understanding with us barge guys. Just kidding. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] Rick

"Good luck on the hood insert"

Hey Rick, must have been too early in the morning for you [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] , he said the insert was there and in good shape. That's a good thing!

Sounds like a neat car.

You are absolutely right Bill. All these 4 hour sleep nights will do that to you. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/crazy.gif[/img]

I prefer to refer to my 66 Biscayne as a Land Yacht, not a Barge! My land Yacht has beaten a good many small light bodied Camaros On Woodward, Telegraph, and Gratiot ave on Saturday nights in the past. I like being able to take the wife and teenage kids out for a cruise and be comfortable and yet capable of dealing with 70% of the street cars out there. Considering I walk with a cane it is much easier to get in and out of than my Camaro's. I wouldnt dream of the extra weight of a fog horn though.

Sorry MM...the Yacht designation was reserved for the more upscale Belair or Impala....Biscayne was designated a barge...we have been erroneously calling our upscale cars barges rather than the correct Yacht term.Mr.70 started the incorrect terminology I think.

So is it a musclebarge or a muscleyacht? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I think Mr. Peters is going to have to bring his L-78 to an event (with a drag strip) and we bring our LY/Barges and settle this like men. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img] When are you going to answer my PM?
