Phil, Rich

If you are interested I have pasted a link to the article I referenced. It looks like a group articles from Road & Track, Stock Car Racing & Redline AMC Dealer Report Vol 2 No 3 Midsummer 1970" It was put together by Cameron Warren and James Crow. I know James Crow was a writer for Road & Track. Im digging a little further.

Well,

Mine is a little rough around the edges. Im trying to get it back to an acceptable state without doing a restore?!?!?!? Its been though a few owners and I think it sat in someones yard out west for 15 years or so Im going to be working on history for a while but ive got some good leads. Im very excited and happy to have it.

I can Attach a Photo but you would need to open the attachement

Like I said its kinda rough

Thanks for the interest. It seems like there are a lot of great people on this site. I cant even imagine the combined sum of knowlege of the people out there. I can only hope that I can contribute something meaningful also.

You've got it! Maybe reduce your size to 800x800 or 600x600 so it fits on screen without scrolling!

Based on that picture it looks like all the COPO owners have the wrong chin spoiler on their cars..

I dont know, Phil said that the chin spoiler was not required to match production, Hills spolier looks like it could work as a snowplow.

Or maybe in reverse gear a zamboni

see phils reponce to the chin spoiler question
