OK, Nostalgia Gasser. What I'm trying to do is build this car to look like an ex race gasser that got drug out of a barn after it was parked around 1968-70. I've collected period correct parts such as, a genuine GM aluminum SBC water pump with a 1966 date code, a Delta Blower Drive setup, an "aged" Blue metalflake steering wheel, a SUN 8000 rpm tach (NOT one of the ones you can buy now), American Racing Torque Thrust wheels, white tuck and roll interior panels, "mexican blanket" seat covers, the paint is original to the car, circa 1956, the straight axle has Ford F1 spindles, the 12 bolt is from a 1967 Camaro, but it's the same thing as a '66-67 Chevy II so....., an EELCO 2 Gallon aluminum fuel tank, Very old Hurst LineLock, water slide decals, an old WICO electronic ignition. He11, the carbs are even dated 1964 !! It's costing lots of $$$$ to get the correct parts. I have missed the mark with the engine block, but even it's a '72 casting date. Oh yeah, I even found a "funnel top" Pabst Blue Ribbon beer can for the radiator overflow !!!
