Illinois Guys

Post by scr8p »

i don't know how many of you are muscle car guys, so i don't know if this is something you'd go to or not. but i figured i throw it out there.....

there's a big indoor muscle car show around chicago near the end of november: http://www.mcacn.com/

anyways, while on the hot rod power tour with the gold 68 442 we finished earlier this year, the owner was invited to take the car to this show by the guy...... or one of the guys that puts on the event. so, if any of you guys go and see this car, it's the one we did. :)

Does 442 mean 4 barrel, 4 speed, 2wd?

it depended on the year of the car..... as to what it actually stood for. but for 68, it's:

4 - 400 cu. in. engine
4 - four barrel carb
2 - dual exhaust
