The 49 Chevy coupe was built in 1958, it had a 56 6 banger with a 54 Vette triple sidedrafts and ran 16 flat at 84 MPH, the 55 Chevy was put together in 5 weeks in 1989 to go to my wife's 30th high school reunion, the 55 pick up was built with a 75 firebird front frame section and a blown BB Chevy, the 65 Vette was a 396/425HP car. The 69 Chevelle SS was a 396/375HP and the 73 Vette had a 454 (are you seeing a pattern here?) The GTO had a 389 tripower, 4 speed and 3:90 posi and ran 12.90's @ 106 MPH. The cad is powered by a 454 + .030 that makes just north of 550HP and 585 Ft Lbs.

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Thanks Mr Big Block Lover, (Geezer2)I love then all also but the one that had my heart is the '59/'60 2dr Chevy with 348 or 409 tri power car. Man if that is still alive number matching car it must be worth a $1 or $6 million.I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.
