Early 2nd Gen Fredd Gibb Camaro?
 
I recall as a young child looking through some pictures my aunt had. I have always had a passion for early 2nd gens since my dad had his 73 Camaro.

Anyway, I recall seeing a car with some names on it. So I asked her about it today and she brought out an album and it had 2 pictures of the car.
She used to date the son of the man that races it. It was Candy Apple red with a red plixi glass hood scoop like the one on the #1 ZL1.
In the picture it has the Harrell logo on the doors but gold tape over the name. It also has what appears to be the gold Kelsey-Hayes wheels on it.
I will post pics as soon as I get them scanned.
I was just curious as to if anyone knew of the car either then or now.

as Toad would say, those are bitching>> tell us more about the pics/who took them and how your aunt came to have them. Post more pics if you can

I am not sure they are the same cars. This one was raced in Illinois and I think Kim's was in SC

I tried to scan them better to see if it helps

That picture, I think would have been after Fred had sold the car. The reason I say this is several things are different on it. The intake ,valve covers ,master cyl, rad hose and looks like the carbs are Holley carbs. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif P.S. could get copies of these pictures?

Jacob,

I live about 45 minutes North of you. Do you have any idea where those pictures were taken? The 'Muskrat' in the background, and the surroundings, look very familiar. Just wondering if it was the old White Hall Dragway.

Kim, Where has the car resided the past thirty plus years?

Dennis
