Default 1971 DHPC Camaro

This must be the 1971 454 Camaro listed in the liquidation ad. Current owner relayed that it was in the shop at the time of its closure. An interesting tale ensued about the car when he showed it to me and its original DHPC paperwork.

I found this ad for the Harrell Performance liquidation sale
Dick was killed in Sep 1971 so he had these parts at that time.

It lists "1 new ZL1 plus 60 short block"

also lists "1 396 plus 60 L88 short block"
I would believe that it is the same Camaro.

I remember there was a long thread on a ZL1 ghost car with Canadian paper but couldn't remember which ZL1 then found this on #48

Grady had quite a bit of experience with Dick Harrell in the early 60's. Here is his Chevelle.
