Absolutely! Bring it on.

The 302 was a very popular engine over at Nickey. They were even known to have performed some 302 conversions back in the day.

OK then... here goes. If anyone can positively identify the location from the background, please let me know.

This is Don and his dad Frank, checking out one of the very first 67 Z/28's to roll off the assembly line.

Track testing...probably the first time a race-prepped 67 Z ever hit the pavement! Note the date, March 1967, also note the snow still on the ground... How cool is this?
