Whos '69 Camaro is that before the hugger '69 Chevelle passes in front of the camera right before the Anglia...maybe says KLANE on the door? .

-------42 was my home track. Only about 20 minutes from my Dads house. We lived in Chippewa Lake, well, not in it. I dont recognize much as I wasnt there in 71. Had moved to Fla. Anglia might have been the Mr.Gasket car??? The Corvette also looked familiar.......Bill S

Looks like the "Steppinwolf" Camaro....out of Evans Chevrolet.....

I have a close up at home I can post later....

I sure do miss that crossover at 42....Very old school...

Here is the Evans Camaro.....It ran in different color schemes in those years...With red and blue custom panel paint...both versions had Earl Evans on the door in a Bowtie.I believe the later version had Dale Evans on the doors above Earl Evans Chevrolet,no Bowtie...One of my favorite local Camaros from the day....A COPO no less..

I assume that camaro is connected to Earl Evans Chevrolet? (the same one that sold the ex Keith Hutson '67 Yenko Camaro with the sidepipes?)

Correct....
