No question that the Hot Rod magazine test car was very cool and has a lot of history behind it. I have seen the car in person and wrote down the VIN and cowl tag info. According to the cowl tag, it was built in August so it would be hard for it to be at the Mesa Proving Ground in May 66. The serial number was in the 102xxx range so there were at least a couple thousand Camaros in California before that one. I'm not bashing you or the car, just wanting to pass on some factual information on it. Like I said, it's a great piece of Camaro history. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif" alt="" />

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but weren't even the very early released cars (i.e. May on cars that went to magazines, etc.) tagged with an August body tag? That would explain an August tag car being in Riverside in May 66.
Yes, I know this is an old thread. Just finished reading the whole thing. WOW!!!! fake stuff everywhere. And with the knowledge that we have now, it would be pretty hard to back pedal this one. Hats off to Brian for exposing this one.
