The Top 5 Missing Muscle Cars of all-time

[William]

I read that he declined all the festival cars because none of them had a/c. So, Chevy built one with a/c. It would likely be one of few June cars, a 350 with a/c.

Grumpy's Toy VII - The 1970 ZL-1 Camaro show car Bill Jenkins built with the help of Chevrolet and Ammon R. Smith Chevrolet.

The Camaro was built similar to the proposed 1970 Camaro ZL-1 (LT-2) 454 aluminum engine option that was cancelled.

I have the original hood I bought from Bill Jenkins. The hood is one of two all steel 1970 cowl induction prototype hoods Chevy built then later gave to Bill Jenkins.

Grumpy's Toy VII was built as a show car with a ZL-1 engine, cowl induction hood, 4 speed, Lakewood traction bars, Hooker headers, Hurst Shifter, and Cragar wheels.

Grumpy's Toy VII was a straight bumper car , Grumpy's Toy VIII 197O race car was a split bumper RS style car.

The 70 Toy VII Camaro was returned to stock and sent back to Ammon R. Smith Chevrolet, then sold as a used car. Bill kept the cowl induction prototype hood.

The hood photo is from Bill's shop when I bought it and still has original paint.
