The first couple cars are for DarrenX33.




[/ QUOTE ]WOW! Thank you Kendall.. Who's SS is that. Anyone know the specifics??

[/ QUOTE ]

The 70 blue L78 RS/SS Camaro belongs to Terry Penningtons little brother Scott. When Scott got the car it was a rust free, basket case, real SS396. It was Hugger Orange with a black interior and black back panel. He figured three H.O. cars in the family was too many so he bought a blue parts car and changed the colors to blue on blue. Nice looking car. Scott qualified at 13.0 Friday then ran a 12.85 Saturday in his shootout. He had some trouble later with the clutch pedal sticking to the floor. Not too bad for its first time out.

Is it originally an L78 car by chance? That Car is gorgeous!

There isn't an L78 stamped on the trim tag if that is the indicator. When Scott got the car everything was apart. No engine, no trans, sub frame off etc. It did have the 4 speed hole in the floor.

That would fit the profile of an L-78 camaro built @ Van Nuys,if indeed it was originally equipped with an L-78 from the factory.

Some Video of the PSMCDR at Stanton. The last 20 pairs are missing. This came from another website.
