Awesome cars Kevin...and you know what comes next;

My personal invite to bring 'em out to Vettefest! I am sure there are a whole lot of people who would LOVE to see these babies in person, especially after you do your magic!

What a great find. A real piece of history. I have the 1968 Speed and Supercar issue with this car. Super cool article. I would rather have the car than the article though.. hehhe

Anyone have pics of the '68 Camaro? I have a '68 Motion catalog that has a pic in the back of a '68 Camaro pulling the front wheels off the ground on what looks to be a public highway! sweet! Just wondering if this was the same Camaro that was found.

a while back that public highway was used as the dragstrip test ground. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

also clear in this shot is the full lettering on side and lack of registration. NOT a street car!

ah ha. Thanks for the link. Been awhile since I have checked this site.

I have that Cars mag. issue somewhere. Now I gotta go find it.

I guess Marty sure settled the fakeness accusations eh? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Wonder where that Camaro is now?

Re: 1967 Chevelle and 1968 Camaro
 

someplace in Hawaii maybe https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

Re: 1967 Chevelle and 1968 Camaro
 

The letters are on the way for both cars from Joel. He had some cool things to say about the 67 Chevelle and how special that car was, "NEAT"! Haven talked to Marty and Joel about the cars, Joel remembered the car when he slammed the wall with it. They both seem to remember the car vividly. Marty's book will have something to say about both of them.
