Re: Grumpys 69 camaro
Good eye on the background "Wallace & Silman" photo. I don't know the answer to that one, maybe Doug might have some input. I read somewhere (I read a lot of vintage race car stuff) that Jiggs' '69 is in private hands and tagged for street use although it doesn't get out much. Supposedly, the owner is fully aware of just what he/she/they have and don't want it publicized. I'm NOT saying or confirming this to be factual info., merely passing along what I saw in print. I also read, and photos do confirm that Jenkins was NEVER concerned with the "looks" or "cleanliness" of his race cars, only the way they in which they performed. Seems like every picture of every car shows duct tape, wire ties, mismatched paint, etc.
And of course I was "speaking" in jest with my comment about calling and making the offer; the low-ball $1000.00 offer was funnier yet!

Has the existence of the 69 car been verified. One was being displayed as "the real deal" this weekend. Other than that the owner was clueless. Anybody know what's up.

Was his '69 a ZL1?

No. It was built as an L78. He swapped in a ZL1 engine from one of the production cars. Later I believe he switched to a 430" Can-Am block.
