The Graduate . 69 Motion / COPO Chevelle . 427/450 hp ,4 speed m-22 ,4.11 . Disqualified due to SS trim package ?

No spare or jack but had styled steel wheels .

NHRA rules were based on American production vehicles . There was no 300 deluxe car produced with SS trim exterior . The rule was changed after we proved it was COPO built in Canada that way in Oshawa so .by the end of that season it was legal by NHRA.
It was all black again in late 69 as I needed it changed again before Mark bought it and cops all knew the car in Halifax
