Bob, Would you post some pictures of the 1968 Head Hunter Chevelle? Also, What is the car's color code on the trim tag? Thanks, Tim E. Penton, Jr.

That red 69 Camaro was driven by the late Joe Delorenzo. The car broke records in the US and Canada.

The car ran in many differnet class,SS/J,SS/JA,SS/N,SS/M etc. Joey could drive anything and drove a 4 speed car like most can only dream of. He set this track record on 11/6/76 with the Camaro doing 11.34 at 118.26 with a 350 4 speed combo in the car. The car is still raced today.

Great you're here Bob!.

Joey's times are amazing for a SB car!.

Gotta ask, would Joey be related to Tony DeLorenzo of Road-Racing fame?.
Tony was most famous for his rides in the Owens-Corning Team Corvettes...Don Yenko co-drove on a few occasions too..
I may be wrong but seem to remember reading that Tony's father may have had some connection or worked for GM?.

-----Tonys father was a GM vice-president and apparently doted on his son as Tony recieved one of the 20 67 L88s (black) as well as a black 69 L88 roadster that went to Europe eventually and then returned to be restored a few years ago at the Nabors in Houston. Both cars were seriously raced and abused. The 69 will be showing up for sale any day now and is just a beautiful car with a seriously cool pedigree. Tony actually came to Bloomington Gold the year the 69 was judged and won a high-point gold. I would be surprized if there was any relation between Joey and the Detroit DeLorenzo family but dont know for certain.
-----As a sidebar, Tonys brother has a cool website called AUTOEXTREMIST.COM. Always a different perspective on Detroit type happenings.........Bill S

I don't think Joey was not related to Tony. He had never said anything,and I knew who Tony was back then. Bill did I sell you a car back in 69?
