Ran into a 72 Chevelle on Highway 1
Well it was Friday night around 2am cruising down the highway when this beautifull 72 Chevelle SS rolls up next to me with a 40 something guy driving it. He looks at me and takes off. So I pull behind him to get around the car in front of me, and there is nothing but open road. He was pulling pretty good, but I knew he had a turbo 350 or 400 tranny and I would fly by him on the top end. Sure enough I blew by him at around 230km/h. So I slow down to see if he wanted to go again with an even start. And of course he pulls up right next to me. We both hit it at the same time and slowly but surely I started to pull on him and gain a couple car lengths. 2 points for the F-Bod!
I go to take my exit off the freeway and he follows me. So I pull into McDonalds to talk to him, and he had an amazed look on his face. He asked me, "What do you got done to that thing??"
I told him, "Just headers"
He told me "I've never had anybody pull on me like that before!!"
I asked him what he had done and he told me he has a small block 406 with aluminum heads, cam and all the other goodies.
He was a really nice guy. We chatted for about 10min then I went home with a smile on my face!!
Man I love these cars!!!!!
