I'm sure if you pay for his travel,feed him and put him up for the evening he will personally come out and autograph it for you.He may even throw in a color photo of his water truck.One word of caution: He eats like he is going to be executed in the morning!

I haven't even seen it yet. It's nice to see Belair woke up though.

Just got mine in the mail. Nice spread. That old Camaro sure carried quite a few historically significant dignitaries around the track.

Charley, the old DAN YOUNG block letters that he addded to the rear quarters (along with the big bowtie) actually got me connected to Dan Young's dealership to purchase my Brickyard 400 courtesy car. Were those applied decals or painted, and if they were paint, do you know how they were removed?
just curious,
Sam

Just read the CHP issue.
Nice Car Charley!
I wish they took more detailed pictures in the Magazine.I can't get enough of that Camaro.
And that is saying alot seeing as I swing with Chevelles more.

Sam... The Dan Young Lettering was removed by repainting the area of the quarter panels. Kevin Lee is the Editor of Camaro Performers and there is supposed to be a 5 page article coming out that Kevin says his pics are better. Factually they are wrong about 3 being built. The GM work order calls for three cars but Vince Piggins said that only two were built.

I was also surprised to read that the cars were originally 4 speed cars. I had previously read that they were ordered with solid lifter motors and TH400 trans, then the motors were swapped for blueprinted 325 horse motors. Does your car show evidence of a clutch pedal?
Thanks again,
-Sam
