It is.

Lynn sold us the engine Jimmy ran in the car, and sold the car with the newer engine to Michael. Jimmy and I helped Michael after he bought it from Lynn. We ran the engine in Scot LaMar's green 69 Camaro. The engine is about to go back on the dyno in a month or so, and it will be for sale.

As I understand it, this is one of Jimmy Bridges cars from a while back. My brother would likely be able to give a good history of that car if he was here. He drove from Wilmington NC to South Dakota to pick it up a few years ago. He had a pretty colorful tale of that trip, as it was rather cold and what us South-Easterners would consider a serious blizzard. Apparently just an average day in S Dakota for that time of year??? I came home from work the day he got home and he's in the middle of my front yard with it. Surprised the hell outta me when I saw that.

That is in fact the Camaro that Jimmy Bridges campaigned for years, mostly in Super Stock E, as a 396 4 speed car. That was before he bought the Corvette he races now. Jimmy Bridges sold the car to Glenn Young, locally, and as I understand, built a new engine for it. They (Glenn and his son, I believe)raced it for a while, and then sold it to Lynn Engle. We bought the original engine Jimmy had in the car, from Lynn, around 2011, I freshened it and we put it in Scot LaMar's 69 Camaro. Later, Lynn sold Jimmy's car to Michael.

I have had a few sets coated by Nitroplate and have never had an issue. Good guys, price was right, and I'll send my next set there.

Re: Header coatings
 

Maybe not, believe they only service commercial customers now. Happened couple of years ago right after they did an old set of Hookers for me....great job too. Assume Kevin is still there though.

Re: Header coatings
 

No sir, Kevin Cradduck left the parent company, Servitech Industries, right after the decision to move to corporate only customers was made. I was sort of an outside sales consultant, I worked trade shows and other events, as well as being the guy responsible for most of the mechanical side of Kevin's racing operation. Of course, when he left, I left as well.

Re: Header coatings
 

They only service corporate accounts now, no individuals or small shops. Sadly. That's why Chris and I suggested M&R. There also aren't any racers or hobby guys left at Servitech, the parent company of NitroPlate.
