So, the race history for the car ends in 1981, when a buddy of mine trades a front engine dragster he had for the Camaro. I can't remember if the car had no engine/trans in it when he got it, or if he took them out himself,...but he only had it for a very short time when I got into an accident with my 73 Camaro, and a deal was struck to purchase the Z28. The car was till set up for the drags. 4 point roll bar, Dana rear, ladder bars, frame connectors, drive shaft safety loop. 50/50 drag shocks in the rear, 90/10s in the front, solid body mounts, no rear seat, (it was carpeted back there), no hood, no radio or speakers, removed power brake booster, 6 cylinder drum brakes replaced the front disk set up, (common practice back then, and most if not all of the Bob Johnson drag cars got that same treatment, for less weight reasons),...etc....etc...and was still covered from bumper to bumper with lettering and sponsor decals. Pictures to follow.
