Where was the tag located and what did it look like?...BKH

[SS427]

If you were able to check, what was the original color on the DH Camaro and what color was it now?

Along the top of the cowl on the passenger's side is the partial VIN stamped into the body. It might be pretty rusted and tough to read. If the blower motor is still mounted to the firewall, remove it and check just below it on the firewall for the partial VIN there as well. Good luck.

That car/yard sounds familiar (used to live in Milwaukee area). Email me if you'd like.... [email protected]

[Charley Lillard]

Please take some pics of the car and tag. Would be nice to note the vin also.

[jtripamer]

i could not get a reliable vin for car has been rusting to bad under cowl and heater core fan i could read i a 609 maybe a 6 then a 5 ahh never mind here is of snap of glove box tag though car was dark blue but repainted white

[resto4u]

Jim, can you email me. I would like to take a look at the car. [email protected] Thanks,Roger http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[Charley Lillard]

It would have been nice to see the pic of the tag in the context of it being attached to the dash. So you took one tiny pic of the tag but no pics of the car to show us ? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

plate are rotted.
the owner of this yard is a old time drunk and dont remember
when or how he got thic car


</font>

[jtripamer]

i aplogize for my ignorence
i have went back to see car, with the help from others that have given me some ideas to verify a few things here are just a few to exclude it from being copo
car has small block heater core outlet placment and also mono rear leif springs

[Mr70]

Although you say it is not a COPO,it could still be a DH prepared Camaro...No?
I remember the Chad B./Steve S. 1970 DH Camaro was originaly a Small block car,with a 454 implant later on.
It still has a Small Block radiator,and leaf springs in it now,if I'm not Mistaken.
Couldn't this be another Dick Harrell prepared Camaro,like the other one,albeit a year earlier?

[Jeff H]

It may still be worth looking into. Somebody might have swapped out the rear with springs at some point in time. A dealer emblem is one thing, but the "Built by Dick Harrell" tag seems to have more meaning.

[Astock]

Especially if it's a brand new DH emblem and rivets from a crumbling rust bucket sitting in a junk yard in Wisc.

[Belair62]

Golly it looks a lot like the one on SuperCars Camaro...

http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif I guess that is why i could not come look at the car. I live too close, and would blow his cover. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif Roger

[Norm reynolds]

What the heck why come on here with that b/s http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

[jtripamer]

if you read hawiians post that i was getting film processed and
was simply stating that this is a snap of what the dash emblemed looked like per somones request because embleb was broken and fellapart when i was removing it and i also did not get snap from that web address mentioned obove.
jeez you guys need a little fiber maye i came here for some help now leaving with a bad taste.

[Charley Lillard]

So you have a digital pic that you took of the tag but you are waiting for film to develop of the car ? The pic you posted looks identical to the one on Kevins site except some tears appear to have been added. Is the pic you posted a pic of the ACTUAL tag on the car ? This is getting tiring.

[jtripamer]

no this is not a pic of the tag on the car i saw this a snap that i posted for the request somone wanted to know what the emblem looked like .please delete this thread for this has been no help to me and only seems to be frustrating you pros no disrespect intended.

[Belair62]

Fiber ? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif...I just had some Metamucil....man that is some rough stuff...post the pic...we would actually like to see it...the other pic was probably passed around the internet..can find that one in a few places...

[Jeff H]

Don't take it the wrong way. We were under the impression that the tag was a picture you took. So if you're saying the tag looks just like that one, it could still be a car worth investigating. Sounds like it would take a miracle to save it, but it could have an interesting history to it.

[John]

...Yea, Don't get upset....show us the photo of the tag on the car...and you will get more help figuring this car out...walking away doesn't solve anything.
