67 427 Camaro and Impala
 

For those of you who do not get Facebook, Mark Daly posted these this morning and I thought some might enjoy them. I think I have seen several other photos of the Camaro before. Enjoy.

Thanks for sharing Rick. Awesome photos...

Anyone know engine specs? W/ the 435hp engine call out was it an L71?

That's pretty cool ..............

Awesome pics and thanks so much for posting them Rick!
For years I've been seeking info on a different car I believe Gil Tremblay maybe owned/piloted so seeing anything else of his, especially a Bob McDonald car is something special!
Thanks again and looking forward to more!

More from Facebook including an early shot of the Camaro. I also got this off of Facebook from the Colesy Place site.

"Moncton New Brunswick racer Gil Tremblay. Gil ran a Supertest station & speed shop called D&G Speed with partner Dennis Surette. It was located in Moncton, across the street from the General Motors zone office where they received and sold hi-performance equipment on consignment. They became a Karbelt associate in the early 1970's. Gil's cars were sponsored by Bob McDonald Chev-Olds in Halifax. Gil past away much too early in his thirties of an brain aneurism. Bob Boudreau photos."

Another of the Chevelle.

From the same site.

"A little East Coast A/Modied Production action from Penfield Dragway in New Brunswick with Dave Mosher from Prince Edward Island in the 68 Camaro taking on Gil Temblay in the 69. Another great Bob Boudreau photo."

Ss 427..
 

What are those wheels on the Impala..?

-wilma

Look like maybe Buick Magnum 500's with Buick centers?

Cool pics. Looks like Buick wheels on the Impala.

like very much those photos.

Looks like they took the ralleys off the camaro and put them on the trailer.

Very, very cool!

Great pictures. I like that the back of the hood has been shimmed up on the 67 Camaro. I haven't seen that in a long time. We used to think it let heat out of the engine compartment...............in reality probably did nothing or next to nothing

Love the 67 Camaro , but that '68 Post is amazingly cool..BKH

I have a orig set of those over the counter chrome magnum 500,s they are really neat,maybe when i get my garage cleaned out ill post them.

Way cool pics!!!! Thanks for posting.

Bob McDonalds Chevrolet Motion

great pictures thanks for posting

the 68 427 Chevelle has the Motion Super Car Club decal on the pass vent window and the 69 Camaro has it on the dr side rear window

I wonder if the 68 Chevelle was from Motion?

Looks like a Shiefer decal and a MP decal Top Cat or possibly the elusive character in the hot rod with bold orange MOTION on the top of the circle decal too...

Bill, when I bought my '69 SS396 Nova back in '91 we did some mild work to the motor. I found that my car did run better with the rear hood up about 1.5" gap in the rear. Not sure if it was heat, "air-trapped" in the engine compartment or just more air to the carb. This car/combo would run 10.40's back then and shifted 78-8200 with the M21 and 4.56/4.88's.
