The Black 67 Yenko Camaro was Jim Parks'. The Hugger Orange ZL-1 was probably Dick Hubbard's or Milt Robson's. I'm not sure who owned the LeMans Blue RS ZL-1 at the time, but that was probably before it went to Otis Chandler.

I only have a copy on my wall but perhaps someone can post the original photo of Rays 68, Ken's 69 and Dennis's 70 Fred Gibb original owner cars and owners in front of the inflatable Bowtie taken at the Fred Gibb Memorial show several years ago. Classic for sure.

The hugger orange ZL1 above was taken in the early 90s. The car belonged to my brother Jim Price and it has its true original born with engine.

That's the #7 ZL1 N608613 raced out of Dale Chevrolet as 'L'il Brother Hugger.&quot; I found both car and engine in the '80s but couldn't put them together and passed it along to Jim. Very well done car.

P.S. the blue RS ZL1 was owned by Joe and Paul Seivers(sp?) at that time and yes it was just before Ottis Chandler bought the car.

#122. This 69 Yenko Camaro was on display at The Mecum Auction in Indianapolis and will be auctioned at their Seattle auction. It is N579518 and was sold new at Joseph Chevrolet in Cincinnati OH. It has it's original drivetrain and has 20K miles. This is one of the first Yenkos I ever saw in person when it was at the Super Chevy Sunday at Indianapolis in 1982. Jerry Buczkowski's LeMans Blue 69 Yenko Camaro was also there that year. Coincidentally that car was just featured in Muscle Car Review with 2 other Yenkos. This Hugger Orange Camaro was featured in the December 1982 issue of Super Chevy. It was also featured in Chevy Rumble several years ago when Irwin Krois owned it. At that time it had white stripes.
