Default Chicago Area Peeps

Anyone recall or knew of a Cortez Silver black top 69 L78 Camaro that ran around street racing? Would have been eventually repainted orange. Non trim car, blk standard interior and typical add-ons - Cragars, traction bars etc. Might have had a fuel pressure gauge or other gauges on the cowl. Just trying to get an idea if anyone might remember or maybe has any photos of the car..

Darrell I remember a orange 69 that was up that way that had a black top , haven’t seen it since probably 84 or 85 , I think a guy named Scott Brown had it . I know it had a big block in it but have no idea if it was a factory big block car , seems like It had a lenco in it

I dont remember a car of that description. What years was it supposedly in the Chicago area? There were a few different street racing haunts.

Thanks for the replies..!!. So from what the current owner has told me info so far is back to 1975. Places include Wheeling, Waukegan, Wadsworth, Winthrop Harbor (twice, two different owners), Libertyville & Hoffman Estates. Car was registered as red in ‘76. Doors have yellow under the orange paint as well. This car had some type of inline shifter at some point.

Darrell,

PM me your cell number.

I will have Scott Brown call you....if it was Scott`s car, he most likely did have a Lenco Trans.

I thought Scott's 69 Camaro was dressed up as a Z\28. Not sure it was a original Z car, but did have a big block in it.
