That is SO nice! M22, I think out of the approximately 1 million full-size Chevrolets built that year, only 77 had the M22 trans.

Note the exhaust tip exits. As I understand, those unique exits are correct for the 1969 L-72 cars.

That car is pretty much how I would order one if I could go back in time. Maybe manual steering & power front disk brakes for me, but yes, F-41 is smart even on a drag strip. The rear stabilizer helps prevent corkscrewing off the line and will help equalize tire loading.
