...and here's the "grandpa".
At the left of the photo you can just barely see the rear of our '69 GMC (this is the only photo I have, I think).
This one was also a straight six, bored and stroked to 305 cu in (dual exhaust), with a homemade tripower intake and 3 Rochester 2 bbl carbs installed, actuated by a Pontiac tripower progessive linkage. A 3.11:1 low gear Saginaw fed back to a 3.73 axle, which made for some pretty exciting launches.
This photo is circa 1969; for the purposes of this discussion you may disregard the '65 GTO (which I also still have - see link below).
