[Car55_History]

As a native of Cincinnati and touring the Norwood Assembly plant in May 1966, I was very excited to become a part of this history of uncovering this #10 pilot car and documenting the car to help bring the car and its many parts into the "light". By a remote chance from a "69 Camaro Z28 owner at a car show who referred me to the owner, the timing was just perfect in finding this car which had been sitting on jack stands for 32 years. Along with the Norwood Plant History from Phil Borris efforts to write and publish his fantastic book "Echoes of Norwood" covering the pilot car history brought a greater dimension to what I had found. My goal was to have this car saved and I believe Corey and his son will be up to making this a fine restoration to preserve a valuable part of our automotive history for future generations to enjoy. I look forward to helping them do further parts research and to help them complete the restoration.
