Default 1968 Baldwin Motion Camaro photo

Interesting, I was looking at this photo, very well known now, of the 1968 Baldwin Motion Camaro lifting its wheels on the street.

Was playing around with a photo editor, and lightening up the shadows, and voila, there's the Ram Air scoops. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

I've had that on my screen as a background for several years. The scoops were always easy to see on my screen. I don't recall where I found that particular version of the picture, but it sure is cool. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

Wasn't there controversy about whether the car was really lifting the wheels on the street vs. some photo editing from back in the day?

Good question Charley. Does Joel have the vin to this car? &amp; if so just like the many others he says he has paperwork &amp; vin#'s for why can't these cars be found.

The car's shadow on the pavement looks tooooooo rectangular.

I think I remember Marty saying it was real and the street it was taken on.
