Super Chevy Shows

[X66 714]

I attended the last Super Chevy show they had at Orange County Raceway in May 1983. I found some coverage of that show later that year or the early next year. I was thinking it was in another magazine other than Super Chevy. What other magazine did show coverage for their shows? Thank you, Joe

This is a guess, but it might have been Popular Hot Rodding as they were owned by the same company.

Didn’t Car Craft/HotRod host Street Machine Nationals? I remember the dates for DuQuoin, IL always clashed with Bloomington Gold.

I've still got posters from the Super Chevy Indy shows.

Thanks for all the help. The issue I was looking for was Aug 1993 Popular Hot Rodding. There is 2 small pictures of my 69 SS396 Camaro in there at OCIR. Just wanted to make sure that issue didn't get accidently tossed out...Joe

Car craft was like $10 a year for the mag. Good deal. And you always got a freebie.

I'm in Tucson Bruce. Sheri said she could do it tomorrow. This is the same car you took pictures of at Firebird possibly the same year. I also did the Super Run in Las Vegas in Aug 1983 with both of my Camaros. Busy year. Thank you, Joe

Ah, okay Joe :) I remember your car when it was at Firebird !

[X66 714]

Here's the couple of pictures. Not real exciting but in 1983 I was about 25 years old & it was pretty thrilling to recognize you own car in a national magazine. I restored it incorrectly so today it cost extra moneys to do it again. For one, I didn't realize then that black was the only color with Daytona yellow. I had those repainted a year or so after that...Joe

[Xplantdad]

Very cool!!:headbang:

[1967Z28]

I was at that 1983 OCIR show as well. I remember a black '67 RS with white stripes that was claimed to be a '67 Z-28 but I don't think it was legit. It had 14x6 rally wheels up front and 15x8s in the rear. I also remember a car that lost control on the drag strip and went into the unoccupied stands, unless that was from a different time.

[X66 714]

I think I took a picture of that black car. No clue where those pictures are. I know I took a picture of a 1966 Acadia sports deluxe...black...Joe
