I found this pic of my Father's car. circa 1981. Sad thing is this car was cut off at the firewall many times that season. He didn't have a lot of motor, so he took a lot of chances. |

The Weston engine came right after and stayed until he retired. |

Taking a shot here... Guessing it was a 1969 Camaro based on the peak on the header panel/center of hood maybe? |

It was a Monza/Sunbird roof and quarters. He made the doors and fenders. But used a Camaro hood and header panel. The later version may not have had the Camaro header. |

I remember you now. Never met you though. Originally I was confused with someone else. The good old days. I was 7 years old in the first full year of modern stocks. |
