Has to be Jim Hughes car. Jim, if you read this, send me an e-mail so I can forward you some early pics of your car from the seventies. Can't remember if I gave them to you when I sold the car. Marlin, I also have a picture of a silver deuce next to it, and it has the front bumper guards on just like the blue one in PHR. Is this silver car still alive?

It was indeed Jim and LaDonna's car, LaDonna drove it over to the show while Jim pulled the trailer with the Camaro. His Deuce has the distinction of being the only "honorary" Camaro ever displayed at our All Camaro Show..
Thanks for coming, Jim!

Dave,
That silver car is alive, and is an original owner car in CT. The car was sold new at Loehman Chev. in Waterbury, CT, is a 4speed without p/s, and has many mod's on it - like big chin spoiler, b-guards, carpet, buckets..... and the custom day 3 CB antenna [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Supposedly, this silver car was used by ACCEL Corp. to do some product testing. They installed a bunch of their stuff, and then it went to the drag strip for some publicity photos. The article was then printed in some type of trade publication back in '73-'74, but I have been unable to find it. Just some more useless trivia taking up space in my mental hard drive [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/confused.gif[/img]
