Is this the old Len Schneider T-bird? It is now owned and raced by Vic Guilmino.

FYI,

Thanks Alex, Does John still race the car in SS?

Good call Dennis, I never noticed it was a T top car, but then again I usually only see the back of it!

Re: Where are these cars now?
 
I can elaborate a bit re the front exit headers of Dick Henrys.

I built Wally's Camaro shortly after Dick had his car out. (As Tom said, one of the first GT cars built)
I built the headers (rear exit) for Wally after stories around were that you couldn't build conventional rear exit headers. ( I'm pretty stubborn at times) .
After Wally's car was out, I built a set for Dick as NHRA took a dim view of the front exit headers.

FJ

Now, if I can just post a pic of my original Camaro, where is it now???
