Steve was wondering what ever happend to that car...?

anyway..
If you guys have an new data or stories post them please.

by the way...
Steve Kanuika set the class record in that car.....cant remember if it was et or speed ?
but in 1969 he drove that car to a
"10.395 136.54 Steve Kanuika Jungle Jim ZL-1 69 Camaro PRO PA 1969"

it stood for a while..

Based on the photos in that magazine feature I do not believe Jungle Jims car was a factory ZL1.

Ditto that. I believe a ZL1 was installed at some point, but not by GM.
