@sugarluckyquishe Great memory, Thanks for sharing it! We sure loved your take on the car and lyrics! I'm really not sure about the cover thing but there is a story about our cover and record, They were found seperately. I found the record in an antique store in Wisconsin and the cover was found at a later time in Duluth, Mn. Thanks for watching, Peace friend

My father was a Chevrolet dealer, and I was driving a new Chevelle 396 and enthrawled at this first big block chevy in a mid-size car. In a year or two, I would look back and realize the song's lyrics overstated the performance of the car ( 'forget about your Hemis.." yeah, right..) , but who could argue with the lyrics' generic admiration of the still young muscle car culture. My cover is plain green; it may not be original, but I don't remember the one on this demo.
