To the untrained eye, this looks like a piece of plywood with stars painted on it. The truth is that this is the ACTUAL door to the Oswego Drag Strip starting line shack. It was 'appropriated' many years ago in a late night visit to the track (just after it had closed for the last time), while in a "substantially refreshed" https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif state. As best as I can remember, the stars had been painted on for the Bicentennial celebration https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif in 1976.

Steven J, is the statute of limitations up on this act of larceny https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

Joe, VERY nice Camaro. I've always liked frost green, although it's not popular with most people.

As long as we're reviewing pictures of Frost green with dark green vinyl top and interior 69 Camaros...here's mine at Rockford Dragway in September 73 (sorry I never took any pics when I raced it at Oswego).
