Cadiz is the hometown of Clark Gable ( Gone with the Wind movie). The Camaro is indeed a red car and not the first or last one built. The current owner is the third owner ….he is leaving the car to his 2 sons. His name is Frank Mattern and he owns Mattern Tire Service. The car does not have any of its Yenko/factory drivetrain. I saw the car close to 20 years ago and told Frank to take the POP from the glovebox and put it in a safe place. I asked him if he wanted me to help him find the original owner and I did and his name was George Powell from close to Pittsburgh. I was able to get the two together and they were both happy to hear from each other. Frank’s father owned a Dodge dealership and Frank always had cool, hot rods thanks to the old man.
