Re: Blast's from the Past

Danny, good eyes I never picked up on that...maybe they updated to the split front bumper when the 70 1/2 models came out...so what was this car then, just a regular Camaro, or maybe a body in white?

Deffinately not a pro stock motor under the hood,,, looks like an air cleaner too. Nothing seen on the windows,,, maybe a display car, yet there are traction bars and slicks,, could've been a superstocker, but I don't remember them running one after the Pro Stock wars started. Someone probably knows on here what was going on.

Re: Blast's from the Past

Has short deck spoiler.
Obvious different nose.
And the lettering is MUCH smaller.
Maybe a dealer display car?
Maybe a promotion car of sorts?

For comparison:

Re: Blast's from the Past

Looks like Dave Strickler also had a second generation Camaro as well...

Another shot of Grumpys Camaro with the full front bumper...an early version perhaps.

Re: Blast's from the Past

Same Camaro. Looks like an L-88 type scoop on it?

A new mystery "toy".
