I did get on the CRG website, pretty good but has some holes in it. I remember the #1 ZL1 running SS/X with the tunnel ram on it. Those were cool times in drag racing. Jeff

Jeff,
Every site has a couple of 'banana peels' in it..The X/SS classes were
pretty exciting back then 1969..Those races answered the question, just who had the quickest S/S production-type car,,,,Hemi Cuda/Dart,,
427 Camaro,,Boss 429 Mustang/Cougar??...Of course,,NHRA got their hands involved in 'stirring-the-pot',, and re-factored the weight breaks,,and ruined everything,,,'as usual'.
On the COPO quest,,,suprised no one mentioned Steve Kanuika,,ran his SK Speed Shops out of Concordsville, PA.. Put together and/or sponsored several COPO cars,,one with Jungle Jim..

Paul, check out the new Car Craft mag. The last page (called Rear View) is an old picture of Da Grump peeking over a ZL1 of his with his Camaro in the background!

Jeff,,I just figured out Al Loyrat "Alloy Rat"..Thanks, I'll go to my local
Waldenbook Store, and go to the back page,, and read for free..
Prices of the magazines getting absurd..Magazine editors better start putting more meat into the pages..Couple of great shots of Grumpy and the 69' cars at York US 30. Type in on Google,,1969 Super Stock Magazine Nationals..Great shots of the 68' Hemi cars,,and the Camaro's; Dave Strickler, Jenkins, and others..Cars classes in X/SS, and regular S/S cars in their proper classes. Race day August 69'.
Paul,,,

copo69,,
You can go into the site through the back door...

It will access www.seriousviewers.com,,,(3) pages of great photos
from 67', 68' and 69'..Has Jenkins at the 69' Super Stock Magazine
Nationals with the 69' ZL-1,,and 68' Tunnel Ram car running in X/SS.
After viewing that, post your happiness, and I'll send you another

Paul ,,LM1,,350/255HP,,,Those 69' non-SS convertible cars and Chevelles were pretty dominant. Too many cubes for the 273 Mopars ,and 289 Mustangs.

Paul, that site was great. 6pgs of neat photos but didn't see any of Jenkins' cars except what looked like Strickler's '69 Z/28 setting in staging lanes at York ssnats in '69.
