Photo(s) wanted of Black 427s with full riveted hood

[66gtk]

I'm curious about what this might look like (no stripes). Anybody have a photo of such a car?

Bob-how come 148 says it's 109??

Bad page editing on my part. I copy older pages into new folders and sometimes forget to change the title.

We don't encourage drinking.

What is a "bar car"?

BOB! I'm shocked-Pete always used that term--the exposed roll bars behind 427 driver seat!

You changed the deck area so the holes for the bar came forward and I think, designed a new bulkhead.

Didn't that start about #275??

So you guys converted 148 for the owner? I was 112....

I've given up on following Pete's particular brand of English...

~265 The list of changes is listed in the 427 FAQ Section.

I don't think that car was "converted". We may have done it to one or two other cars, but only after a crash that "allowed" us to replace both the body and the chassis.

Yes, that makes sense. That 'do-over' and the 5-speed crossmember were the only mods I pined for after doing all the other updates.
