This one I worked on was up for grabs about 6 months ago. I think George Zapora may know the current owner cause he asked me if the previous owner wanted to buy it back. It's a Canadian car with paperwork and restored.

I saw the Hugger Orange L-78 at the 1998 USCC Niagra Falls show, however it was not being judged. Wish I had looked closer and checked out more details I know well now. Stripes were added, should have dual snorkel enclosed element air cleaner and smog is missing.....Other than possibly the low milage Citrus Green L-78 Don Stowers worked on, I'm not aware of ANY restored top quality 1970 L-78 Camaro anywhere. Eric Reufsnyder in Redding,PA has a nice unrestored ex racecar put back to stock. My own L-78(picture attached) was on cover of July 1991 Musclecars magazine, but photographs dont show flaws and body needs work and car still needs resto, however it is ALL #'s matching.....Chuck S/Seattle

Dans car was pretty nice. Deluxe black interior, tilt, 3 spoke wheel. The RS option was added, as were the stripes. Should have had ralley wheels I believe, but he wanted the sleeper look. Original motor was gone but I beleive the heads and intake were correct or possibly original. It was in Musclecar Review a few issues before it was canned by Primedia!

EVERY L78 70 CAMARO I EVER SAW HAS L78 STAMPED RIGHT ON THE COWL TAG. I DONT THINK YOU CAN FAKE ONE.

The Hugger Orange L-78 that was documented by GM/Canada was for sale in Dec/Jan at the classics dealer owned by Al Wiseman in Tarpon Springs, FL. By the time I got there to see it in late Jan I was told it had left a few days earlier for a new home in California.
