The last pic is in 68 but with them behind a 67 Camaro.

Yes for the 1967 Camaro this is probably normal for a conversion.
Just a remark "the Mag Wheel on the reat seat " http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

I tell ya, I bet those L72 'Scaynes made some $JACK$ back in the day! I mean, being a plane jane big car you don't give it a second look, but in nearly every original road test from back in the day ran low 13s at anywhere from 105 to 108mph...and Casey's car is doing just that right out of the box! Maybe the REALLY surprising thing was it's weight, though...like 4200 pounds with Casey in the seat! I would have guessed 3900-4000 with Casey, but I was WAAAY off...

Yes http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Casey
Will you be attending SCR7 come September in Collinsville?
I would enjoy watching you race the Scayne. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif

[Casey Marks]

That is the plan ! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

[JoeG]

Casey, are you still tooling around town with those 88's ?-------- http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif

[Casey Marks]

Nope. It has 4.10's in it right now in a different housing. The original, *DP* coded axle housing is on the shelf. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
