Does anyone remember a 1969 Camaro sponsored by Mac's Chevrolet. If so go to youtube and search for 1969 Mac's Chevrolet NHRA Divison 5 super stock camaro 427. Someone found the car and is in the process of restoring to it to as raced in 1969. I invited the owner to check out this forum, hope everyone gets a chance to check out the video, Al Howe

I think I remember seeing that car, someone else on here was talking about it on another thread...was it a red '69 Camaro with some side damage.

White with red graffics on it, and yes the passenger door area had some damage to it

Looking for any information on a 67 camamro that may have run at cornhusker the car is blue in color with custom paint on the sides the car is called capn crunch on the doors the capt crunch cereal guy is painted in blue, he is holding a piston. Also has omaha nebraska air brushed on the fenders. The front end looks like fiberglass tilt with a snorkel hood scoop. A friend of mine has the car and is getting ready to restore it to as raced condition

Not sure if it's the same one but it set in Silver City Iowa behind a body shop for years, Had an early olds rear in it and the front end fit pretty ugly. It had been purchased and moved there by Terry Christensen and he still works at a body shop close to there.

The car is now owned by a friend of mine, he is wanting to know if the car ever ran at Cornhusker and does anyone have photos of the car when it was finished. He has the car running and road worthy, now he wants to have the car repainted to look like it did when it was customized. I have a photo of the car, have to resize it so it will fit here, will work on adding the photo tomorrow. Thanks again for any help you can give me on the history of this car

Thanks for the info, the new owner has to send me a better photo the one i have will not post on here to wide a photo, if you know of any photos of the car at scribner can you post them here, since the car was built in 1969 there is a good posibility it did run at cornhusker at one time

Same car. my boss at my part time job owns the car now,still has the Olds rear end, it has been rebuilt, my boss has all the mechanical work done, he plans to keep the exterior as is, he is still looking for photos of the car, I was able to find a photo of the car racing at thunder valley in the 80s. only the front end is shown on the photo

A dark blue 67 Camaro was raced by Rich Mnarak and Charlie Jacobs. It did have a snorkel hood, but steel fenders and hood. The had a mural on each door but not the one you described. Also, the last I saw it, it had a Dana 60 (mine) in it. They sold the car in 72 or 73 and I don't know where it went. They were both from Omaha and raced at Cornhusker Raceway Park. That car also won the Popular Hot Rodding Nationals. It was E/MP at the time.
