Shevelle Feb 21st, 10, 5:37 PM Yes, upper left hand corner of the trim tag there will be a number which translates to the build date. Something like 06C, which would stand for third week June. limerat Feb 21st, 10, 8:38 PM sorry copoguy did't mean to hi jack ur post, i'm new at this forum. i will post my questions else were.

Luke, I grew up in Larchmont and remember distinctly, Hory Chevrolet, on the corner of Boston Post Rd. and Weaver street. They were in business until about 15 years ago give or take a few. One of the fastest cars around in the late 60's was a friend of mines. Hory sold him a sleeper, a 66 4 door Biscayne, with a 427 / 425 monster. It ran the 12's back in the day. I remember Hory Chevrolet very well. :yes: Roland in N Y | ||
