Could you be thinking of "Ghetto Rat?" It was a '67 Camaro. Used to hang with another black '67 "Soulful Strut" supposedly a '67 Z/28 sold out of Humphrey Chevrolet.

Top dogs on the South Side were "Climax" a silver '68 Hemi Road Runner and "The Educator" a Hugger Orange '69 Z/28. Both gone far as I know.

Any chance "The Educator" '69 Camaro is the car in the Car Craft article from November '78 titled "They only come out at night" ? It was owned by Scott Brown and called "King Camaro" in the story. Claimed to be one of the toughest on Chicago's South side. ? I don't recall anything about the name. I'd love to see more of it too.

That Camaro looks great even in black and white.

That Camaro above was in the "Rat Pack."

The pictured Camaro was owned by Scott Brown of the southwestern suburbs of Chicago. I was told many years ago by a friend from Chicago that Scott sold it a purchased a large boat.

I lost track of it back in the 80s and I have not heard where it ended up. It was a well done car and it has always been a favorite of mine.

I do not believe that it was part of the Rat Pack out of Dayton, OH.

Scott never put a name on his car I was talking to him about that the other day. Scott is a mopar guy and his cars all have modified hemis. His Hemi duster is my favorite.

Thought it was. I'll have to dig up the old Car Craft Camaro special edition with this car's story.

EDIT: Yer right, no mention of the Rat Pack in the feature article. 36 years of fuzzy memories back to 1979 when the article was published...
