Brooklyn Heavy 427 Motion Camaro

[scuncio kid]

I had heard that Heavy had purchased a Camaro from Jenkins but I also read that he owned a 427 Motion Camaro. Does anyone have any info. This is a cut and paste from an article about NY street racin. " There were many other fast cars in Brooklyn, names like One Way George, George Gavan in his 67 Chevelle, home built but fast, Tab Talbage in his 1970 Don Nicholson mustang, Brooklyn first 9-second car, Cam Rod in his Hubert Platt 1970 maverick, Brooklyn heavy in his 69 motion Camano 427 auto, and he went on to race professionally in pro stock, Clyde 67 396 375 Chevelle, Leroy Scarboro 427 69 camaro, and his partner Shorty. The early races in Brooklyn were Tab Talbage, the first black racer who race at West Hampton Drag Strip, in his 1959 ford in the early 60s Bill Quick 64 409 Chevy, Big Daddy Shane 62 .406 ford, and later 427.65 Ford, Jessie Wheat 406 61 Ford, and later 65 427 Ford, Rags 62 Corvette, Billy 62 409 Chevy SS ,Frankie Lamb 64 409 Chevy SS, Foots 63 Chevy SS very fast 327, Big Walt 409 63 Chevy SS automatic very rear in those days, James Smallwood Wilbert Smallwood 69 notch back Sox & Martin Cuda "

Would this be the same car as Heavy's 69 Camaro

Hubert Platt...now there is a name out of my past. Growing up in Atlanta as a teen in the 60's and 70's we use to go to Covington a lot. Huston and Hubert were always there. I still remember Hustons funny car going into the stands in 69 and Huberts blue Maverick...last time I saw the Maverick the engine blew just past the lights and pushed a rod into the asphalt. Wow, what memories.

I would say it is since you can see "Brooklyn Heavy" lettered on the front fender of the tow vehicle.
