Info/pics on the Mt. Hood Community College class race cars?

[6130]

There was a series of them, and they were all named "Homework". The only pic I can find on the internet, is of an SS/JA '65 Chevy II:



I'm pretty sure there was a '60s Corvette they ran in the '70s.

And the one that I remember from the '80s, was a very clean '69 Camaro convertible Stocker, presented as an SS/RS Indy pace car, with a white convertible top, white paint, and Hugger Orange stripes. I think it had the orange hounds tooth interior, so it was probably a real Indy pace car.

I believe Stan Hawes drove the camaro

The Camaro convert is owned by Craig Bloom (Eastco Machine) who also races a B/SA Camaro. He purchased it from Mt Hood Comm College after they ended their program, Stan Hawes drove it in J/SA with a small block. The car has been converted back to a street car, it got requarter paneled and is now black with white stripes. To my knowledge, it is not an original RS car.

I saw the Homework Nova being bracket raced years ago but have no idea where it has gone since. No idea on the Corvette either.

I heard that Lee Mathews got the Corvette back as it was his car originally. Lee also drove the Camaro in I/SA when I was going to school there in the early 80's.

I raced the 69 convertable from 1992 until 2000, I won the Autolite nationals in 1992, the second national I entered. With radial tires and a power glide on a hot slippery track with slapper bars and Vic Hobs help and good luck and Mark Maxwell .001 red light in the finall I ended up in the winner's circle. The car was origionaly red. I switched over to the 69 ElCamino Between the two Mission races in 2000. Give me a phone call at 503-701-0254. I have photps of the car with Homework lettering. Before and after photos of the paint job and new top. The car was very consistant and easy to drive with the power glide. if you want photos and more information on the car call me. Any one who knows me knows me knows I like to remonise about how it was.

So Stan, I see that you were involved with facilities of higher knowledge, before founding the Stan Hawes Institute of Technology!
