Does the ad have Elvis driving the car?? That would clear up a couple of sightings.

Bruce, I know a gentelmen in AZ had what he belived to be a prototype-mule L-S6 70 camaro. I remember my friend talking with him at length about the car and documenting it. I don't belive that he has found any documentation for it yet...I'm just a little pee-on in this hobby and I have heard several refrences to this car all from diffrent sources so...I thought it was discussed on this board 3-4 years ago...I can't for the life of me remember his name...maybe Dave
Rich.

Car's VIN is 123870N500001. Code 17 paint, black interior.

I spoke to the owner of 500001 a few years ago. He had purchased the car from Smokey Yunick. It had no engine but I think he said it had big block engine stands in it. He was sure the orig engine was in another room that was full of engines but they wouldn't let him look for it. I think the car had a 6 cylinder vin though.

Well, there you go, first Norwood Camaro built. Shadow Gray, Black interior, 6 cylinder Camaro that someone used as a test vehicle. Again, make note of the VIN. 6 cylinder!
