Quick Question

Where did they get the "F" in "F-Body" does it stand for anything about the car?

------------------
I WOULD RATHER PUSH A CAMARO THAN DRIVE AN IMPORT

1983Z28 350w/ edelbrock performer RPM power package with 64cc aluminum heads, dynomax shorty headers, 700R-4 with shift kit, 750cfm carb, edelbrock 3" exhaust system, ASCD SS hood, 16" IROC rims.

future mods:
completely done over suspension, black paint with flames, Hurst shifter, dakota digital gauge package, procharger supercharger.

GM alphabetizes their chassis. The camaro/firebird platform is "F" and I believe the GrandPrix/Intrigue/Monte/Impala/Catera is a "G".
