Yes ZZ1 gold

Same owner since 1969; past NHOA President. That owner knew car since new after meeting son of owner and watching it street race a 427 4spd Impala… Hemi won.

Hot Rod Sept 1981 well known article: Supercar Showdown

Says 60k mi in 1981. Now 68k mi

Is that the original engine color, looks like race Hemi orange.

Just to show what it looks like with redlines

And afaik, a 7.75-14 Good year only exists in the original tires only Never been a repop that Im aware of

When this car hits the streets the summer of 2024 . it will be on 15x7 Keystone Classics

Jennings did my brother’s 70 Mach I once.

Figuring Nobu’s location in Hollywood, I bet they had A-list celeb customer list with just an impressive car list.

I found a thread on a 375 horse Camaro sold by original owner in West Hollywood with a Nobu’s sticker on it: https://www.yenko.net/forum/showthread.php?p=1307518

Very cool car!

Are those Goodyear F-70 redlines? Can they be had in blue line? I don’t think dying the red blue would work.

Wonder if Kelsey would make a set with blue instead of red?

Doing I’m trying to carefully document this car.

Some slow non aggressive cleaning is showing some cool inspection marks.

first year for "STREET HEMI ORANGE" engine paint is the 1969 model year

IMO the closest/practical available option would be the 1968-'69 F70-14 Goodyear SPEEDWAY it is available in "white streak" (& some additional blue paint/dye/marker work)

Diamond back makes these in a blue line sidewall

Thank you.

Yea, I think this car is worthy of bias ply’s. That looks like my best bet so far.

Anyone know of a really good white to blue sidewall dye/process ?

If I went radials, I’d run 15” with my Spyder Rims (still need ctr caps)

This car has a lot of red primer showing on the underside.

Does this look like it was overspray from the red exterior primer?

Were these cars dipped in red vs grey/black primer?

The rear quarter red shows because the factory didnt get the ZZ1 gold paint coverage down there

Build plant is ?

7 = St Louis

427 SPD = April 27, 1966

That Feb 1966 tire I posted is the original spare.

March 1966 date code on carbs:

My 2 cents.

I would not use the f70 series tires just because it's a Goodyear.

The profile of the tire is completely wrong and instantly identifiable they are wrong.

I would go with the repop BF tires in the correct size. Sidewall color and profile of the tire

Seems like an NOS type air cleaner element ?

I would say the odds are pretty good for that.

AFAIK, there have only been 2 repops made of the round element. With the primary difference was the inner screen( just dont remember said differences )

Pictures of said current repop

What process is used in "non agressive cleaning"
Simple green and soft brush?
Whatever you are doing seems to work well.

The only undercarriage thing I’ve cleaned is the very rear of leaf spring. I did that with water and old toothbrush. Then diluted simple green. Then rinse with water and bat down with terry cloth. The inspection marks tend to show better when still wet.

On the stainless and chrome, I’m using Wenol on soft paper towel or microfiber cloth with Q-tips in crevices. I’ve only done the drivers front hubcap, wheel well trim then drivers side tailight and bumper

Those front wheel wells are completely untouched !

Interior untouched !

Thank you. I've used the soft brush and water/simple green. Tried to stay away from the super aggressive stuff. I'm familiar with the wenol as when starting out he's have a booth at local nor cal shows.
It looks to work well.

Yes. We had them a Spring/Fall Flings years ago. And he'd do the Pomona and Long Beach swap meets.

I believe SemiChrome product works similar.
