[napa68]

Grady is the new Elvis!

[dykstra]

Got my issue yesterday. Great article!!

[green crv]

Yes, got mine yesterday. Really cool looking day two. Hey Mike, you need to sign your paintings and number them to. LOL. Pretty soon you'll be on TV like the Postman. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[m22mike]

That's not me, that one is the Generals.... <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

Well I did paint the hood. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif

[427TJ]

Cool '67 SS Chevelle in there too.

[Plowman]

Congratulations too.

[cook_dw]

Yeah that 67 is freakin' saahhweeeet!!

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

Who is &quot;the general&quot;?

PS: Grady: is this still your favourite? Or is brown the new red?

Ryan

[DW31S]

Don't have mine yet.....can't wait though! That red car is pretty freakin' cool! I think I like that one better than the brown '69 because it IS a Day 2, not a current build Day 2. Please don't take me wrong as I truly admire the '69 for many reasons (starting condition, build parts, build quality, etc.), I just appreciate how original, and how NICE &amp; ORIGINAL that '67 is. Great job and congrats to Grady.........and Mike, too!

Ryan...the General, as in General Motors.. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif

Agree 100%, the Red 67 is in a league of it's own, and what a survivor it is.
When I first saw the Red car and was giving it the once over, I noticed the tail light bezels, &quot;ZERO PITTING&quot; I knew the car was probably never wet !

Mike

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

I replied before my morning Tim Hortons:-)

LOL &quot;the general&quot; off to get a medium with 2 creams:-)

Ryan

Back away from the keyboard!!!

[enio45]

Stop teasing us.........that must be nasty with an L88

[m22mike]

Keith
Just got around to looking at MCR, great story on you Dad's car, great to see it is still with you.

Mike

[bashton]

Outstanding car and an awesome owner!

And along with this one and Keith's ;65 Goat is a very significant Z-28 that you will see at MCACN 2017.

And with that being said, let's all show our support for Muscle Car Review by subscribing.

I have to say. Grady let me take this down the track in Columbus several years back. I think you only go about 100' before you shift into 2nd and you get the opportunity to see light bend on the launch. Just sayin. Very cool car. As nice or better than you see in the photos.

Great ink. Great car.

Phil Woj.

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

Ohio guys share well with others:-)

Ryan

[m22mike]

I drove it too that day Phil, made me forget all about my L78 69 Camaro. Hope we get to see the Brown car make a few passes <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif

Mike

[Postsedan]

Grady said he was certainly going to take the Burnished Brown COPO Camaro down the track.....only fitting <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif

If you make a track day out of it......and we all go to that same wonderful burger joint....I may be persuaded to come out and be part of the pit crew <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif

Me three, I almost put it into the wall in 2nd gear.. Little scary..

Rich

[COPO CARTEL]

Here is your ultimate track day for Grady....bring both the Brown Copo and Red 67 to SCR20 for our track day ...he can hop into each car and get probably 15 passes for each of them....or better yet line them both up at the starting line for a great photo OP.....then see which one is faster.....if he needs help driving the second car I am sure there will be plenty of friends and volunteers!!!!

[Mr. Chevy]

Here is Grady's red beast racing Phil (Woj's) 69 Chevelle with a 502 crate motor... This was at National Trails Raceway outside Columbus, Ohio...

Turn up your volume.... Enjoy..... Rich

[Xplantdad]

Sounds great!

[Woj]

Pretty cool Rich. You can see the difference in the launch with Grady's 4.88 gears vs my 3.31s. That was a great run for Grady. More fun when
you have someone to compete with on the track, unless you are looking at the other guys tail lights.... like me.

Phil <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[Mr. Chevy]

Phil, your Chevelle is no slouch.... That runs very well also!!

Sounds like the Grump shifting!

[396L78canuck]

What numbers did the L88 run?

[Mr. Chevy]

I think it was low 12s, maybe a high 11s if I recall..
