Missing Muscle Cars

[Too Many Projects]

I've heard/read stories over the years that he converted the '67 to look like a '68 body to avoid starting over with another identical car for the '68 season.

Is that false, did he convert it back later to sell ???

There’s a lot of debate over the 67/68 cars - I have also read that the 67 was ‘updated’ to build Toy IV.

HOWEVER - this picture appears to debunk that idea - it shows Toy III in the foreground......with a ‘vented’ hood Camaro with Jenkins signwriting on the trunk lip behind it - so he clearly had TWO 67/8s.

Toy V can just be seen off to the right.

The presence of Toy 5 rules out any chance of the ‘777’ car being the 68 Pro Stocker from 1970 (which also used ‘777’) - so the picture is clearly around 1968.

So the evidence shows they were two different cars it seems.

Rockin' Randall's Camaro would be a keeper if ever found.

Jenkins 68 Camaro won him a lot of money according to Bill in a interview.
