Re: Hemmings Muscle Machines April issue
Sure is a nice car. I was wondering about the tech sheet listing it as having hydraulic lifters though.

Re: Hemmings Muscle Machines April issue
Don't forget Keith MacDonald got a nice plug for his Milt Schornack book.
 You go, GOAT72.

I had no idea the book review was in there.  When Milt called me up and said he "heard the book was in Hemmings" I ripped off the plastic mailing cover and practically fell on the floor. Wow, 2 guys from the Yenko.net boards in hemmings at the same time. Cool!

Re: Hemmings Muscle Machines April issue
Thanks for starting the thread Sam! It was a real surprise to stumble on it!
The boys from Hemmings saw the car at Musclepalooza I...I wasn't by the car at the time but my 13 year old gave 'em my shop number and.... Wheel hop! Lemme tell ya about wheel hop! The car was un-drivable as I bought it! If memory serves me, my buddy Ted, had Mr Gasket No-Hop bars on it for years and years [not there when I bought the car] I couldn't pull the trigger on that [or SSM bars like I have on my '67]So I tried replacing the 4 upper soft bushings with urethane [shhh...don't tell anybody] Cured it 100% I've got a day one Polaroid Ted gave me and some from when he raced it at Rockingham..I'll post tomorrow... Again thanks to all for the kind words.

Re: Hemmings Muscle Machines April issue
How can you do a headrest delete ? I thought that was a required safety item like a shoulder harness seatbelt ?

Re: Hemmings Muscle Machines April issue
For 1969,only 774 Chevelles were built without them.
A $16.90 credit,known as RPO-AR1 Less Head Restraint..and 4432 Impalas as well. I've only seen two Chevelles built w/o them,and only for 1969 Vehicles that I know of with BenchSeats.
