Default Re: Top 10 Sleepers

The car that was like Jake LaMotta Raging Bull (`I coulda been a contender') was the 1962 Chevy II (Nova). Chevy had Bill Thomas design a kit to install a V8 and made the kit available over the service counter. Bill Thomas built a demo with a 360 hp Fuel Injected 327 and 4 speed. This car could have been the grand daddy of the Muscle car before the GTO was ever made if Chevy built it instead of just made the kit. Would easily have been a 13 sec car with a decent set of rear tires. My have not stopped too well though.
