I like the Ram air set-up.

ya, it should be the same (weight wise) as a chevelle, gto.......... any of those a-bodies. but it's not anything 496 cubic inches can't pull around.

as lowgear said.... they came from the factory like that. it was part of the W-30 option, i believe.

Nice job, scr8p! I had a gold '70 Lemans Sport a long time ago. Seeing that Olds reminded me of that car. I loved that Pontiac.

BTW, still looking for the Camaro.

Unless I run across a crazy deal on a finished car, It'll be a project. With a ground-up resto, I'll know everything was done right.

do you want any year first gen. (67-8-9), or one in particular? i don't remember what you had told me last time we talked. i can keep an eye out for something.

I haven't decided on the year, but it'll be an RS-SS convertible. Today, I'm leaning more towards the '67.

How DARE you people hijack my thread with relevancy!




As always Scr8p, nice work.

Aren't they supposed to be a molded plastic of some sort too?

yup, that's what they are...... molded plastic.

To keep weight down. The things they did back in the day to make theirs faster than the others! LOL!

Scr9p is at it again ...
