    What a great period piece...no tubs, no skinnies in front and steamrollers in back, no graphics, etc.
    A great looking car that could easily go back to 1968 and a Dog 'n Suds drive-in.
     
  5. Nice condition for a Ct. car.
    Too many gee-gaws to be portrayed as some kind of race car tribute, though...in MY opinion.

    In 1963, they turned out in this Z-11 optioned Impala with a 2x4 427 & 4sp. I love the window sticker still on the LHR window above 602. 'Old Reliable' tuned by Bill Jenkins and driven by Dave Strickler .

    Nice car, but it isn't white ,front end is too low and its got the wrong wheels.
    I thought a tribute was supposed to mimic the original, not just be the same year.
    Nice car though.

    Nice ride. Don't see the "tribute" aspect.

    Peanut gallery has "tribute" confused with "clone", perhaps.

    Nice car.

    If owner says it's a tribute, it is. Look up "tribute"

  11. Well, it DOES have A/S on the windshield.
    Although I don't believe Strick and Jiggs ran A/Stock with any 09 cars. Bill did run A/Stock with the Chevy II.
    I guess that's close enough.
