It's not mine nor do I know anything about it. Just thought some here might be interested in it.

Very cool and very worth taking a chance on for that kind of money. The Jungle Jim Car had red interior also. Just sayin'!

[Xplantdad]

Neat!!

What kind of hood scoop is that? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif

[Jack_Tar]

It is not far from me and if someone wants to make the investment I would love to do the restoration.

Looks home-made

Now that would be something if it was the Jungle Jim car.

I believe it is a combination of a hood and an additional scoop added to it.
Here is a picture of what I believe is the hood. Would have to guess the scoop is hand-made.

Marty, where was that pic taken?

[Hawkeye]

If I remember correctly, hood was in California. Neat piece.

That would be awesome if that were the same car. Buyer MUST restore it as JJ's car for sure! That would be a great one to restore.

Ok. Am I the only one seeing Yenko hood stripes on that gold 69 in the back?

[Fast67VelleN2O]

Did anyone buy this car yet? I'm dying to find out what the cowl tag says.

[jannes_z-28]

Notice that on the pictures of JJ's car there isn't a roll cage in it. So if the car on CL is JJ's the cage has been mounted later.

[Carleen]

I have some more pic of JJ car.

First thing I thought...

[SS427]

Good eye Darren!

I see the alternator was moved to the driver's side on the Jungle Jim car....was that common and if so what's the reason?

Perhaps the way they installed the cool can?

Cool stuff!.
The below text w/ acid dipped note is an excerpt from a history/tribute to the great Steve Kanuika.
The whole thing's a good read, from the Hamb site.

<span style="font-style: italic">&quot;...Steve built his last racer; the ’69 Jungle Jim Camaro Super Stocker, with acid-dipped doors and frame, blueprinted 427-inch rat motor and all of the go-fast “stuff”. It was a 9.80s match racer, very popular, and another rolling billboard for his speed shops. This car still holds a class record! It was driven by Steve, and eventually sold to Dick Collins...&quot;</span>

Not the same hood, there are no holes in the rear of the hood in california, the JJ car shows 2 oblong holes in the rear.

[x77-69z28]

It's hard to tell if JJ's car is red with white stripes or white with red stripes. Badass ride.

[Day2_69Z]

Not a ZL 1 car, Not a COPO car, Nor an SS396 .... just a used base small V8 car built up. Anyone notice the M/T 427 V-covers,aluminum manifold holding a Quadrajet carb ??? They kept updating the engine from an SS class 396 Q-jet to an Iron 427 then late 69 early 70 into a transplanted ZL 1 type combo &amp; went match racing. (the SS combo was NOT Competitive)
The 3 cars pictured with the last one (tunnel ram, chrome bumper,black grille, diff panel paint,diff location of hood pins &amp; THE FRONT ENGINE PLATE MOUNT) denote this as a Totally different Car..... looking at both Hoods, they have different hood pin locations.... But both Hoods are 'Glass' and are not home made.... aftermarket race hoods (maker unknown) A1 from Md. maybe???...there were a few hoods like these on early Camaros here in Western Pa when I was a kid..... Racing at P.I.D &amp; Keystone Raceway Park.
Does anyone have the Craigs list ad already opened &amp; saved?
