I know that somebody on one of the forums(either here or Detriot horsepower) said that even thought the Ribbon Camaro is now part of a man made reef that there were a few parts still laying around in Hawaii. I recently got in contact with Dennis Ferrara who opened a shop where he is building exact replicas of all his old race cars and even goiung to race them down the track until they run the best e.t.s from back in the day. The first car up is the Ribbon car. I told him maybe even one or two original pieces remain. That would be cool to see the parts back on the replica car.
He is also duplicating the red white and blue ex Jenkins car and still owns the original doors that were on it from the Jenkins days and the original fiberglass 74 style pro nose that will be used in the buildup.
I speak to Dennis on a regular basis now and can get in contact with any time.
BTW,he and Richie Zul verified that the restored Toy #8 is a relica and they contacted Mecum to let them know. Dennis will be at Mecum next week. Let the fun begin.
