Here is another one of a 69 Camaro that I would like to see more pictures of or find out more info on the car.

Re: Just found a picture of this!
Bob Moon is local to me and the story on the car is a little vague. ie; Supposedly a Grump car, supposedly a Lemans blue 6 banger, supposedly a car that had a Lombardo 427 race built motor in it when it was in the above condition. NOT SURE ON ANY OF THAT. The reality of some are a little dusty from what they remember.

Re: Just found a picture of this!
The picture of the Camaro was taking the day Bob sold his car. Picture was dated Aug. of 72.

Re: Just found a picture of this!
The 33 willys is I think the Peto and Dutton car from Stowe, Pa. Was an A or B gasser at the time. The picture is early 70's?? at Maple Grove. The camaro was driven by Barry Curren when I knew the car and ran in Stock and Super Stock eliminator mainly at maple Grove. I think this is the car that was for sale about 2 years ago at the Maple Grove flea market in early Spring? I believe this car was a 325 horse 396. Don't remember if it is a Marshall or Fisher Chevrolet car. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif I ran against this car with my nova and he beat me up! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: Just found a picture of this!
OK, then it is true that the car was an original big block? I knew the man who owned it lived on Pineland Rd. Right off of 422 wst in Exeter. The son of Gene's Autobody owned it. I was told that the car was never originally a bb car and that it was a 6 banger. I didn't know it at the time it was forsale that it was the Shangrila Camaro. I just heard the price was a little outrageous for what it was, but never knew then. I called the owner 2 yrs ago and he told me he had just sold it and wasn't revealing anything. I was respectful, but upset in the same breath. I think that car is wild. As far as the previous history of the origins of that car, not sure. My cousin talks to Bob often so I asked him tonight if I could maybe get ahold of him and talk to him about the car. I think that a local guy did the paint job! I might be in luck because some of those guys still are around here. I want to dig into this car's history a bit. From what my cuz told me, he lives like 2 min away from me. I heard that he didn't race the car too much. Kinda put too many eggs in one basket! As far as the Willys goes, I think my dad said it was in the late 60's early seventies. That was my dad's gf at the time and I think she knew the owners of the car! I could barely make out the names on the roof, but I think you are right about that. What else do you know about the Camaro? I know the guy took it back to what it was, but did it stay in this area?

Re: Just found a picture of this!
It was supposedly the car for sale at the Grove back a couple years. I think it even had paper work with it. Marlin may have seen the car also. Something like 900 and some original miles. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif You are making my head hurt Jed. It was way too long ago. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif
