Is this an omen??
I've been kicking around for sometime now what upgrade I'm going to tackle next. I've thought of everything from a convertible conversion, single turbo on the stock car and then maybe increasing the cubes on the Hawaii car. Then yesterday while cleaning out the garage (at my new house) I found these:
 They must have been left by the old owners wife. He had passed away from cancer the summer before. I had no idea he was a Vette guy... Maybe he's pushing to do the 427 Turbo w/o the Jet  What do you think?Anyone know what year these are from? There was also a set of CORVETTE lettering as well as a couple of door lock knobs.

Ron,
Looks like they are for a 66-67 car. NOS examples appear to be going for $100.00-$125.00 for the pair on Ebay. Jep |

Don't forget full size 3rd gen Chevys (Caprice, Impalas, Biscayne) were available from the factory with the 427 fat rat motor back in the day.

Re: Is this an omen??
Yep! That's a spirit talking to you. Might be scary around there if you disregard the hint. Least, that's the logic I would use when discussing it with the Missus.

Back in the day the mere sight of those badges on the front fender of a Chevrolet struck fear in the hearts of many a Ford or Mopar decieple.
