Identify this 69 Camaro please
 

Hi, Mike Hill here, I currently own the Karl Gould Hemi superbird (formally driven by Tim Richards )

I'm wondering if the 69 Camaro in the far lane is Grumpy Jenkins car? I see "Grump" on the side of the car ,but don't remember seeing pics of him in a silver Camaro. Jenkins ??? Or a different car?

I can't seem to get the picture to load.
If someone can copy it and put it here on this thread, I would appreciate it. (It's located on the KARL GOULD HEMI SUPERBIRD thread....it's the last picture posted on that thread.
Thanks,
Mike

Do you know the track location?

I know the photo you're asking about. Was it you that noticed it first there? Anyway, I've never seen a Jenkins Camaro that didn't look like one. That one didn't, so I predict you're going to find out it's just a car that had a grumpy cam, was hard to start when cold, or just belonged to a grouchy old guy.

The artwork on the Camaro reminds me of the Joe Jacona "Rolling Stoned" Barracuda Funny Car.

Did Grumpy ever race a ZL1 Camaro? It sure looks like a silver ZL1 that ended up in the Muscle Car Museum in TN.

By the tower location on the left in pic. It could be aqausco drag strip. Start asking around if someone has a 1970 yearbook. I have one for 72
Put up another picture without the blowup of the grump so I can see more of the tower

Jenkins' cars were always "Grumpy's Toy", not "the Grump".

That's Maple Grove, green & white old camper, bread truck, tower, etc.
Looks like a Rubrecht pic.
