1970 Superbee rolling chassis needs a new project manager... factory 4 spd, 383, with optional 3 speaker dash, some body work already done

Factory race set up, 4speed, no PS, no PB, bench seat. Scorch red, tan interior. Gromet440@yahoo.com is a buddy of mine who is not desperate to sell, he's got time to take the best offer, and he wants this to find a new home where it's going to get back on track.

No kidding, there were specific plates for Michigan furniture mover, parking lot, junk truck wagon, landscape and tree operator, garbage collector, and peddlers... whatever that means

I had no idea Michigan had so many varieties in any one year, but the coolest plate they ever made, with red, white, and blue... stars and stripes too, had over a dozen different variants!

A bit about California registration too:

1976 was the year that California started staggered registrations. 1975 stickers had been issued for the calendar year 1975, with no month stickers to go with them. In 1976, drivers received month stickers based on the center two characters of their plate.

The Smithsonian Institute, historical marvel of the USA, it's both amazing and educational, in person or online

http://americanhistory.si.edu/onthemove/exhibition/exhibition_8_2.html

For a terrific tutorial on how the worlds use of the car began, the many facets of incorporating the automobiles into our civilization and culture, the variety of exhibits is probably the finest in the world.

Drivers licenses, license plates, gas pumps, parking meters, radiator emblems, car safety features, road evolution, automakers transformed from agricultural implement makers, carriage builders to carrozzeria, traffic signs, road improvements, car repair tools, gas stations... and so on.

Radiator emblem collection in the Smithsonian

Radiator emblems were colorful metal plates with a manufacturer's name or logo that attached to the radiators of early automobiles. Varying in shape and size, but never more than a few inches across, the emblems were small branding devices.

With about 55 emblems on display, around 1/4 of the cars made in th USA from 1890 to 1930, and a brief description of the car, the company, and the design of the emblem.

In the descriptions of some, I read about a couple standard features of different cars, like a Kodak camera, a compass, and tire chains.

Some of the brief descriptions are pure brain candy, educational, information I find fascinating: Louis Chevrolet was a well known racecar driver who aspired to owning his own automobile company. William Durant, a partner at the Durant-Dort Carriage Company ( the nation's largest carriage company), was looking to branch into automobile manufacturing and approached Chevrolet to help design a car for the general public. Along with French engineer, Etienne Planche, and former Buick plant manger, Bill Little, Chevrolet and Durant began their company.
