nothing to see here, move along


Clarence Everett and his 1968 396SS Camaro, a theft recovery car


he ran G or H/G, he was a flathead legend in Oregon, ran often at Woodburn dragstrip, and Bonneville


rumor has it it was the world's fastest flathead 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds, a 1950 Merc block

Clarence took his one-year old ‘68 Camaro SS, yanked out the V8, and replaced it with a Flathead Ford. Everett apparently raced in a class that only allowed Flathead engines, as well as inline six-and-eight cylinder engines. It is an odd, odd combination, Flathead Ford and Camaro SS, but Everett reportedly saw a lot of success with this car.

The aeroplane has registration G-MOVJ, as also referenced in the lyrics (as "Golf Mike Oscar Victor Juliet"). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Miles_Out The album had "Family Man" which was immediately covered by Hall and Oates who made it a hit.
