Default Re: 1968 Baldwin Camaro Tubbed & Tubed

A good friend of mine raced pro stock back in the early 70's and cut up an original Baldwin Motion car to do it,but the car still exists today,and is reported to be in a garage in central Jersey.The car was stolen off the Bladwin Chevy lot back in 1969,and later recovered with no drivetrain and many other parts missing.My friend bought the car as a stolen recovery with salvage papers back in 1969 and fitted it with the powertrain out of his A/MP 67 camaro,and added a glass nose,and had his racing partner drive it for a few seasons in Pro Stock.I even found his car listed in the NHRA list of Fastest prostockers of all time which I belive was for a MPH record.The car had a patriotic red white and blue paint scheme on it and was named "Born Free",and had the neame Neighborhood Garage on the rear 1/4's.The car wasnt a tube car and from what I could make of the pictures had most of the stock floors,and stock front subframe,so who knows,maybe it could be restored by an ambitous restorer.I wonder what Joel would do if somebody wanted to document it.
