Grump is and was the best in the Chevrolet department. Met him a few times.

Love his driving style! Thanks for posting Steve.

You had to change the year of the car for the year you were running I think. Sammy

will know for sure. Some guys just changed sheet metal to change the year of the car. 67

Camaro may have turned into a 68 till the 68 was built?

It was owned by the Kimball brothers for years now I believe Dana Mecum owns it.
