Quoting from the March/April 1995 Camaro Enthusiast:
"David is in the process of rebuilding this Camaro back to stock condition as it was shipped to Smokey Yunick before it was dismantled for race purposes."
"He said that he had old shell sitting in the back of his shop. I asked if he would sell it to make a replica of his '70 Trans-Am race car."
"I had this historic car that I was planning to build as a replica race car..."
"He then disassembled the car to make a race car out of it. The Camaro sat in an open shed and in a lot until I bought it in 1989."
Jim Hall is quoted as saying the Chevy test car was silver. The Yunick '70 body was paint code 17, Shadow Gray.
Same car, two very different oral histories. Which story best aligns with the photos of the 1970 Camaro body purchased at Yunicks' shop?
You be the judge.
