Did team Jenkins have more than one 70 1/2 Camaro? My Grumpy's Toys book is on loan right now, so I can't research it, but I seem to recall the '70 1/2 car having the extended RS front end on it as opposed to the standard nose on the car in the photo. Could it be a different "Toy"?

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.

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:

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.

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

A new mystery "toy".
