12 of 25...drat...tricky ones there....Guess I need to study a bit more, but it was fun to think about all of those questions. Honestly, do I really car about a 305 Corvette???? other than to pick up one cheap and shove a ZZ4 into it?

Vette(s): 1976 Silver/Firethorn. L48, 4spd. Original 2 bolt, vortec heads, 9.4:1 CR, Speed Pro Cam: 224/224@0.050, 112 LSA, Eagle Steel Crank.
68% for me.  When I saw that score I was embarrassed, but after I read the other posts it seems I'm in good company with most of you.  Last year for red stripe tires?????   C'mon - that's pretty down in the weeds.   Someone would really have to study the Black Book to know that...  Fun quiz, though.

I agree Dave.  I scored 60%, which was not too bad compared to someLOL. (Did you see that, Chuck?)  Unlike Larry's 50's car quiz, this one more about the finer details of the options on C3s.  (The first year that leather seats were standard?  Who knows?)

Larry's 50's quiz was more general and visual about the cars we all grew up withThumbs Up.  I did pretty well on that one, 90%.

Enjoyed them both, thanks for postingSmile.

Hey Dean,
 
Yea I saw that.  But one thing to keep in mind; you're a lot older than me so you have had many, many more years to learn this stuff.  Smile
