Sounds like something for me to do when I get out there next year. That's over by the Tacoma Mall, isn't it?

A factory built drag racing car made by Chevrolet in 1962 featuring aluminum fenders, hood, grill, bumper, and a full race 409 V-8. Only 18 were assembled for NHRA competition, four known survivors, you can see why I want photos of the one out in Tacoma right?

Who's your buddy, my boss scoffed at the notion that Austin has one of those, He say's he would rather have the 67 SS, I will go today and take a couple pic's after I go give blood. Should I ask if they will sell it ?

Hey, Vince says I need new plugs, anybody know the part # AC __41- 108 ____________-??

For a second there Sam I thought they were going to make you give blood before you could see the car, but then again, how many vampires own vintage Chevy muscle cars?

ACDELCO Part # 41108 for your plugs, yes see if that 409 is for sale, and gently ask if its a clone or the genuine article.
