I saw this car at Super Chevy ,Indy back in 1992,
if you can put your hands on a Super Chevy magazine dated June,1992 there is an article on this car.
They gave a hand out (13 pages) at the show and I still have it. When I saw this car I started my quest to buy a real one and it took until last year to find one.
History:
Car was sold new at Ernie Grissom Chev, Mt.Clemens,Mi and delivered to Mr. Gerald Miller on July 9,1965 It was raced from 1966-1968. It was parked in 1969 until 1991 when the school restored it for Mr.King and Mr.Bigham as a project.
In the hand out is a copy of the window sticker,purchase agreement (dated July 3)copy of the mortgage contract between Mr,Miller and GMAC,and several work orders from Automotive Engineering,Oak Park MI. In one of those work orders he had the engine blueprinted at the cost of $750.00 back in 1967.It was sleeved and bored according to the work order. Total cost came to $1,738.93 which was a ton of money back then.
(may of had the numbers deck?) put a 4:88 gear in it along with hurst shifter,cam.and a host of other items.
Hope this helps,Ron.H
