    SBC....guess if it needs to be traditional, you may as well make it look like a Hemi.

    Oh C'mon Danny...surely you've seen these RARE SBC Hemi heads before...they were made in Germany I think...before WWII...yeah...that's how I remember it...:rolleyes:
     
  7. Looks like Chubby to me. Years ago I saw the adapters to make Hemi covers fit an SBC but I don't recal where I saw them though. Stu

    You guys got me. That is in a '49 Ford shoebox with '56 Chevy trim that is going to be sold at Barrett Jackson, so keep an eye out for it - and if you were planning on bidding, you've been forewarned! :D

    Larry, the same guy owns this '32 3-window. He bought it like this, but got my dad to sand the turqoise and pink pinstripes. :rolleyes: lol I figured if anyone could appreciate this roof treatment, it would be you. :)

    DrJ, lighten up old man.

  12. Nope...that's not a WWII Bomber escape hatch!...:D[/QUOTE]

    Larry you're so right. It's not a WWII escape hatch - it's an "I can't escape 1986" hatch.

    Oh, I can hardly wait to hear Decadenet et al try to explain this. Brock: "It says it's a small-block Chevy." Decadenet: "I looks just like the one my Mum had in our old Chrysler." That Sports-car Guy: "Well, I know some Chevy's had Hemi heads..."
