I seem to remember an article that was about the 70 Camaro VIN no.1...apparently was discovered at Smoky's shop and it was an LS-6 transplnt?? Does any one else remember this?? or am I losin' it again?? haha
Where is this car now?? I assumed it would show up in magazines when finished. I have not seen it restored...

No, you're completely sane. Number 1 was a Norwood built six-cylinder car that went to Smokey Yunick to be tested with a GM-supplied LS6, M-22, rear disc brake and cowl plenum set-up and special suspension pieces for possibilities of running such a combo for FIA homologation. I don't have pics on computer but have seen articles on the car. I think the resto is complete but I stand to be corrected.

That fresh-air hood is pretty cool. Pun intended!

Last time I talked to the owner (a year or 2 ago) the car was having some work done in Indiana. Not sure where it is or who owns it now.

I took this photo at the McDorman show back in September.



I think that this is the LOS car?
Anyway, it was here in Columbus a couple of months ago, and I don't think that old Bob has sold it since then.
