Re: Cordia Chevrolet Clymer, NY
You are dead on correct about the Vega but the Camaro did get another life as a drag car later on with more mods, Yenko stripes gone and new paint scheme. But the good news is #1 Original owner still has car. #2 Picked up himself in Canonsburg #3 Never rusted, not cut beyond being able to save most all of the orig body. #4 Owner kept most all of orig pieces removed (some killer parts like a smog system driven from Canonsburg to Erie removed before engine cooled down hours after car purchase, boxed and put in Moms basement) #5 It's the Hurst magazine story car #6 Lots of NHRA drag history '70-about'76. #7 Paperwork and photos to die for. #8 See #1

Re: Cordia Chevrolet Clymer, NY
Although credit goes to Gilcrest for taking the pic...I'd like to say thanks to a past member COPODOUG for finding it and a large collection of others to share at the appropriate times...Doug was a wealth of info and a great friend...1/24 marked the 6th year since he left us due to cancer....The attached photo I took at Vette-Fest,per his request, on his 45 birthday...His last...
Miss ya Buddy... Steve

Re: Cordia Chevrolet Clymer, NY
Brian, I will try and get the info on the article. I had it years ago but I am sure my friend has it more available than me right now. I think it was Popular Hot Rodding but not sure. Likely a '69 dated issue. i'm on it.
Thanks for the awesome Gilcrest photo.
