Educate me.
I'm guessing the JL8 was intended for SCCA or Trans-Am racing (??). Was there an upcoming big race that Chevy wanted to win, and have a car with "RPO"s that could compete?
I know Chevy did that for other years and RPOs just ahead of Daytona, or the Winternationals.
Has it been documented that the first JL8 equipped cars went into successful racers hands? That was the case with some of their other "special" RPOs (such as Z-06, Z-11).
Is there a known quantity of factory JL8 built cars? Who manufactured the rear assemblies for Chevy. Does anyone know, or have a good guess why that great option was so short lived? And wasn't '69 Chevy's most successful Trans-Am racing season? How come no more 4-wheel discs?
Sorry for so many questions. I'm just a dummy where these cars are concerned, and I'll propably never own a Camaro, but I'm curious. If someone would take the time to educate me, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
