I have been waiting hoping the Bronze car story would clear up by now..is this the same car that was in a magazine a long year ago as a fresh find and the guy even had a proto type intake from GM with it, it was found in Cal with Dana lic frame on it, or is this car just happen to be a twin to the real car,

Bud...Same car!

[budnate]

so the whole article is BS???...I recall reading the guy that worked at Dana recalled this one sitting in the corner in there shop..is there a post somehwere where the car went from being a long lost Dana car to just a clean old heap.
I dont recall reading anything negative about it.

I know the PREVIOUS Owner very well... and the feature article that was done, was only done to see if it could weed out information on the car, past hx., etc.. to verify whether it was a REAL Dana 427 car. The Article was slanted by the EDITORS, not the Owner..to infer it was a REAL Dana 66 427, when in fact the article was supposed to be written to indicate it had many signs of being one and if anyone could provide information to confirm it... please come forward., bottom line, it did what it was intended to do.. Put to rest the idea iof the car being a Real Dana car.. It was not/is not., information came to light making this clear and hence the car has been sold. The Owner/my friend.. Dave.. no longer owns the car. It was not sold under the pretense of being a Dana 66 427, nor was it sold under the idea of it POSSIBLY being one. It's is a nice original 66 AzteC Bronze Chevelle, with a NON ORIGINAL ENGINE it.

Jor,
Can you please explain something here? You come on here and in your first post are asking for info on Dana cars. Then within a few hours you say that you don't want anymore Dana info but now need Nickey info. What's the deal? Then you come in and tell people that have been members here for years not to post any more about a car that they are obviously interested in reading about. If you need info on Nickey now, you need to start another thread asking for that info.

As our beloved supercars and musclecars become more and more valuable and unattainable by the common folk, we are likely to see more and more strangers (speculators? clone builders?) popping up on message boards trying to get free information. Might be best to simply ignore such people until they 1), fill out their profiles, and 2), explain themselves and their queries a little bit more.

But that's just my two cents.

I asked Jor offline to just be a bit more specific on what information he wants...
