Re: [Chevelle-List] subject: rarest option for your year of chevelle ?
grant: are you going to graham this year? i believe i will be there with our newly formed chevelle and el camino club of Oregon. yes the cruise is a rare option on any chevelle. i don't know the numbers for my year (65) but i have never seen one on a car in person. i have been fortunate to find an NOS speed and cruise control for it. its not in my possession yet but I have been promised it by my supplier of NOS parts. The only problem is I have been told that it may interfere with headers and I may have to run stock exhaust manifolds to use it. Larry

Re: [Chevelle-List] Smokey's '66 Chevelle
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List I recently went to Floyd Garretts Musclecar Museum anticipating the site of that car, that was the whole reason I blowed my $10 to get in. I looked all over that garage and it was nowhere to be found, I went up front and asked about it and I heard about him selling the car to some guy in California just recently. Hmmm. Sounds to me like somebody wanted to make some extra dough like many people did when #3 tradgically died. But anyway its kind of funny that people didn't mention Smokey too much while he was alive but just as soon as he passed he got tons of coverage. Sure he got some here recently before he died, he did some advertising for Pro-Long (still don't trust the stuff, at least when they did the drain your oil out and drive a few hundred miles, sounds like snake oil to me), but now its Smokey this and Smokey that, why didn't they do that while he was alive? Anyway I am a big fan of the car and I would really like to see it in person one of these days, but I doubt it since now it will probably disappear into the hands of private collectors who will keep it out of public view for years to come, or worse yet, some moron will start vintage racing it. I know its supposed to be at some race in the next little while, I would hate to see some hotshot try to push it thinking it was like a new car and slam it into the wall. Josh 66SS396 From: Mach 4 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Chevelle-List] Smokey's '66 Chevelle Date: Wed, 1 Aug 2001 08:13:36 -0500 Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Hello - I have been trying to find info on an old racecar, Smokey Yunick's 1966 Chevelle which was driven by Curtis Turner in the 1967 race season. In fact, during the non-Chevy-factory sponsorship years, this car came out of nowhere to win the pole at the '67 Daytona 500. This car is famous for the liberal rule bending incorporated in it's construction. Smokey felt that if the rules did not say you couldn't do it, it was fair game. Like large diameter fuel lines which coiled all over the car and had a capacity of 6 gallons...floorboards hammered flat so they acted as a bellypan, which was outlawed...'stock' bumpers re-made so they fit tight to the body...etc...etc. The car was even rumored to be actually 7/8 size! Many of Smokey's 'innovations' would be discussed and outlawed by NASCAR in the week between races, but he seemed to keep coming up with more creative ideas. Some stories I've read suggest the competitors and Bill France of NASCAR were getting pretty fed up, but other stories sound like there may have been some under the counter collusion helping Smokey along! The original race car crashed and disappeared, but the back-up car still exists. It was in Floyd Garrett's Muscle Car Museum for awhile, but I understand it has now been sold to a private party in California. The Sept. 2001 issue of Super Chevy has a small feature on Smokey and this car. I have seen the car briefly on one of the weekend car shows, where they called it a '67. But that's about it. Do any of you have any sources of info on old NASCAR trivia? Website suggestions? Other magazine articles? I am not finding much... Thanks for any help.JimACES #20202 - '66 SS's - To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp - To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [Chevelle-List] Theft protection
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List All I got to say on this one, go to stickdeath.com I know its a violent site, pretty senseless, but its still funny, he's got a bit on anti theft devices that I would like to see put in production. Before I get a million e-mails about it, no I am not satanic, no I am not a violent person, no I am not like my peers that enjoy acting like dumb asses, and no I don't listen to the music he has on his site. often. Now for the reality, I live in a pretty decent area, still have the morons that would rob you blind but I can still leave my car unlocked with the windows rolled down, and my CDs sitting out and still not worry that somebody will steal my stuff. But in the incident that I go someplace big (kind of like how I went to Lexington the other day to meet up with Wes) I lock my doors and don't leave the car for very long, even while it is out of my site I know how easy it is to get it started without the keys. Eventually I am going to get a Bulldog security system with the beeper that tells you when it is going off. On my dirt bikes I put a toggle switch under the gas tank on the coil so when I stop at a gas station or something I make a motion like I am turning the gas off when actually I am flicking the switch, it works and has already stopped one theft, sometime or another I am going to put one back on the Chevelle, took it off when I was have electrical problems.

He said that with modern tires and Dale Earnhardt driving it would still run over 200 at Daytona.

[Chevelle-List] So where are folks buying their Flowmasters these days?
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List As always, thanks for all the responses. Given that I really like my current loud exhaust system (it definitely has an aggressive resonation inside the interior with the windows up or down), I really do think that the 40 series 2-chamber mufflers are for me. Trouble is, though, that after calling some local auto parts stores and looking through my Chevelle catalogs some generic catalogs (Jegs, Summit, Whitney, etc.), I can't find anyone who sells the 2-chamber mufflers. None of the local stores I know of (inlucing the chains like Pep Boys, NAPA, etc.) carry any Flowmaster equipment, while the various catalogs seem to carry a variety of Flowmaster pipes mufflers except for the 42543 2-chamber 2.5 offset/offset mufflers that I need. I plan to contact Flowmaster directly on Monday, but in the meantime is there anyone out there with 42543 mufflers and if so, where did you get them? Thanks again in advance! Jim -69-SS396- H.
