Stump the motorhead can you? (Bet not!)
Ok the other post got me flowin... How about some automotive trivia to test me? Because of my queerness for all things automotive, I've amassed a Cliff Clavinesque knowledge of all things automotive....so bring it on....
Now, let's not get into part numbers for the AIS motor on a 92 chrysler 3.8, but real 'My cousin vinnie stuff'. keep it in american cars, Drag racing, muscle cars and equipment, stock cars, hot rodding etc.....can ya top me? (without google?)
Bring it, cupcake!

GM went to a crushable column in 67 so the cutout were the column goes is wider on the 67, also the dash strip were the wiper switch and the headlight switch are. it is 1/2 inch closer together on the 66 then the 67 , that one had no reason for it. both the 66/67 dash do look the same.
