Could it be "related" to the two cars,Brooklyn Heavy and London Heavy ? They were shipped to this side of the pond.

I do believe that 2 of Heavys Mopars went to England or in that area. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

The whiskey King Bellīs son brought both cars to England, but Brooklyn Heavy was later shipped to Sweden.
I believe I found the picture in www.race68.com |

Anybody else think the way that Camaro sits is awesome. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif Those rear rims and tires are really stuffed in there. Looks sinister! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif I wish that picture was color. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

I will have to read that article. It probably still has a 12 bolt in it. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

Re: Dick Harrell 70 1/2 Camaro (Heavy's baby)
Granted there is a lot of room in the rear wells of a second gen Camaro, do you think he is running a Ford 9 inch/Dana 60 or even shortened GM housing in that the Camaro?
