Day 2 vs Street Freaks vs Period Speed Parts

[resto4u]

The original owner of my 67 camaro RS-SS, said the original wheels and tires came off the car the same day he took delivery. Replaced with keystone mags.

Would that make your car "Day 0.5" then?

Sorry, I couldn't resist!

I know someone was asking about the pics of the Nova I posted above. It's Joe Camuglia, original owner 69 SS350 4speed. There was a story on it in Hemmings

http://www.hemmings.com/mus/stories/..._feature6.html

Here are a few more pics that didn't make the original article.

Here is the car in he dealers lot back in 1969.


Original engine pic while still on the dealer lot, note overspray.

I'm actually going to pick the Nova up tomorrow and take it to a local cruise night in Garden Grove. It's still a blast to drive and keeps me young at the same time!! I still have the TT's, but the Cragar's are long gone. The tow tabs are also in storage right now.</span></span>

I couldn't resist posting those pics when discussing Day 2 mods. They are just priceless. Here I am trying to figure out what people consider Day 2 and there your story is writing the book on it! To have the story of the vintage mods and timeline so clearly doccumented by an original owner who lived it is pretty darn cool. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]

Joe's car was also featured as a members ride here...before it was in Hemmings. There is also a video of his car running at Lions as well!

BTW, I was lucky enough to get a ride in Joe's Nova ...we drove right past the entrance to OCIR.

Joe's a great guy...and the car is soooo cool!
