  5. There are several Chevy IIs that race there. It has to look the part of a 60s racer though.

    That’s why I was wondering if a 65 would qualify because I know they all look about the same from 62-65. Just want to make sure
     
  9. You've got to have 10 spoke fake spindle mounts.

    If it's a carry-over year, like your car, you can usually race.... Of course (as stated above), no modern wheels, etc.
    Easiest would be to send @Ryan a 'conversation' / PM with a photo of your car and ask him.

  11. If it is built traditionally and it passes the boss you can race it.

    I used to race a '65 C-10. Of course not many people alive can tell the '65 from the '64. The old ruling here was that some cars have minimal changes from '64 to '65 and that is acceptable.

    Best thing is throw it passed the boss as has been suggested.

    Like said above "carry-over year". In the rules of this place it states (correct me if I'm wrong) that if a vehicle was available before the cut off and the body style DIDN"T change it's still allowable.

    I appreciate the responses. I will contact the administrator and ask him. I’ve been going down there for several years now hopefully will be able to bring a car next year to race
