Found this pretty cool track car. 1968 Camaro "Head Games". Ran Super Pro in the 1980's according to the owner. Ran a sbc and a glide with a 12 bolt. I'm working on some vintage pics.

Very neat find....
Any history prior to an 80's drag car ?
Some pieces & set up appear as if they date
to the mid latter 70's .

When the Previous Pro Trends trickled down to Grass Roots Weekend Warriors.

A Base Car , SS or ? are the bones ?

I have no prior history. This car started as a bare bone 6 cyl 3 speed stick car (pedals still hanging). 12 bolt in the car has 5.57 gears and was originally a 1968 BU 3.73 posi housing. Originally British Green with a black standard gut. The floor tunnel was cut out of the car and zeus fastened for easy access to the transmission. Has front drum brakes and was setup for a front motor plate, which was included. I figured the car had some previous history because of the hood, and some of the suspension setup is earlier parts mixed with 80's period pieces.

The hood scoop is an AI (Anderson Industries) model out of Maryland

How much would you say is going to be salvageable ?
