Default Re: identifying a 68 l78 camaro?

got ahold of the original owner last night! wow what a cool guy. He ordered the car november 67 and waited 6 months for it to get made, He said he had a hard time getting it since it was such a rare car with the wheel size and rear diff gear ratio. Used it for drag racing and it was mainly raced on woodward ave in Michigan. He sold the 396 instantly and installed a 427/425hp with an L88 intake, 850 carb and L88 cam. Later on.. blew up the 427 and put a l78 396 back in the car (69 model). He is 65 years old and still likes going fast. He just bought a new grandsport vette which had the dealer put on go fast goodies before he took delivery and has a 91 vette with a 427 sbc in it. He Said he is willing to help me with anything on the car, and is going to try to look for vintage pics of the camaro.

Ill keep ya guys posted!
