Re: 71-72 copo cheyenne w/427 etc
I also doubt it's authenticity. if it is supposed to be preserved in a musium, then why did they update it with later stuff instead of making it look like it *suposedly* did on race day? you don't see Nascar series race cars from the early 70's with late model parts...they are all preserved....esp if in a musium, where history is supposed to be preserved.
While I think they probably woulda used a Cheyenne... or at least an upper and lower trim two tone paint... I don't think they woulda put optional 'parachute' mirrors on it.
And if it is up for inspection, what does that sign in the drivers window say? Probably don't touch me or something liek that.
If some one can prove that it is real... please do.
The point was made about nothing getting a 427 with the exception of tall deck dog motors.... NO ONE in there right mind woulda used a tall deck to go fast with... not back then, the mountian motor mods are recent, not from the 70's.
