The new LM1 arrived I have posted a few pics at the url below until I get time to play with sizing them for this site.
Here are a few things I have noticed about this car vs the hugger orange LM1 that I have: Muncie 3 speed vs 4 speed on the hugger LM1 4 Leaf rear springs vs 5 Leaf on the hugger LM1 No gauge or console package vs both on the hugger LM1 Both have: 12 Bolt rear, Fact Dual Exhaust, Dual Fuel Lines, Speedo enters firewall by the distrib, prop valve under drivers door and of course the stock HQ code blocks with the factory 4 barrel with Chrome air cleaner. this car is 100% bone stock (the Hugger is as well) it still has the original smog, paint, and does not look like much as been done to it. Which brings me to my question. I originally thought the tranny must be a saginaw until you guys told me that they did make 3 speed muncies (of course, the shifter has muncie on it instead of hurst, which in retrospect?). Now that I have the car, I see that it has a power booster behind the master cyl. However, it has drum brakes. Neither look to have been changed and look to be at the same "wear" level. The brake pad, which also looks bone stock, does not have the disc medallion in the center. Any ideas on this? Was there power drum brakes in 69? http://www.nois.net/Gld69lm1/
