Doug "Mr. 4 Speed" Perry showing what an A/S camaro would run like in the early 70's! NO lawn ornament.

Please don't reference Doug and "hole shot" in the same sentence...this is a family forum [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img] </div></div>

Fred does have a point.

Guys , thanks for the kind words...the car is a real COPO X11. Rally Green with white standard interior. Being a stock M22 4 speed ...we have wrestled with this car for 2 1/2 years now ....it has been a demon and an angel all in the same day ....lol. The launch was at 5,600 ....but I have to give the credit to my partner in crime ...Dave McGaffee. He has been the mastermind behind this journey from start until present day....our friendship gets tested with this Green Machine ...lol. This winter we will put our heads together and look to make a few changes. Joe....Fred...."HOLE SHOT" ....is the same as "MONEY SHOT " ...and I can't say what I am thinking....lol. My car enthusiasm comes from my dad .....he would have been 70 yesterday...Happy Birthday POPS. And of course Dave, Joe, Mark, Dru, Tom, Benny, Shawn, Rich , Steve, Brian, Frank, Kenny...and arch rivals ...Grady and Mike. The front license plate is courtesy of Rich Rutt here on the site. Stay "TUNED". Doug

So that's what they're calling it these days - the term fits. Sure wish he woulda left that car as it was. It had a lot of authenticity from what I saw in the photos.

That's neat Doug, I was wondering when you were gonna' come clean on the hole shot... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
I bet Dave could get Grady's 67 about 3' in the air, maybe next spring.
