One of my favorite cars when Mark Osterbye drove it and a very fast SS/KA at the time.

Yes was wondering the same thing. I was going to place a bid but have no desire to push the bid unless I meet reserve and purchase. The seller stated car was "garaged its whole life" . That is the case with most race cars. Judging from the exhaust and street tires on the rear, it appears this car was street driven the last 20 years. A very beautiful Camaro, but really condition and sentimental history are the realistic value. I dont think Supinski, Graf or Osterbye have interest or car wouldve sold after Mecum.

And sadly I thought when this car surfaced on Mecum last year that it was an unrealistic high price for what it was. It clearly is not a famous LS6 convertible, but just a very good condition, somewhat SS molested 350 4 speed Camaro convertible. As a historic NHRA super stock car, good luck. The staging lanes of an NHRA event are filled with "historic" cars. I will let you know in 10/15 years what they are worth.

As cool as this car is, it's not "historic".

Frank, that was my point. Need to convince the seller of that though

And if memory serves me correct, this Camaro was never a "Super Stock national champion" Set records and won the Ohio Springnationals with Osterbye driving, but I think that was about it. Just a clean, modified Camaro convertible with some cool history.

...and I don't think it was done by Ed Quay in 1972 either ..Maybe late 70's.
In 1972, cars of this type were lucky to have a 10.5 tire.
