I first saw it around 1980. It had a light biff on a front corner that took out the bumper. At that time the L89 was not in it. The shop that repaired it added a ducted hood.

I don't think you bought it from Pee Wee but since he is circle track guy it wouldn't suprise me if it went around the track a few times. He has had a lot of Camaros, most recently a loaded '69 Z/28-RS, factory black with white houndstooth, VE3, N34, etc. Too messed with for me but striking nonetheless.

Humphrey Chev went out of business in the mid '70s so finding a nice emblem will be tough. They were a Hi-Perf dealership, sold Yenkos in '67 and many Corvettes. The building stood unused for years, finally razed about 10 years ago. Vacant lot now.
