Did I see a Chevelle in there with Cowl plenum induction?
What's that all about?

1 of 1 Cherokee! That looks awesome. I'd love to hear the
story on that car. I've never seen or heard of it before.

Here's a couple more pics of the 69 Chevelle with cowl plenum. I tried to talk to the owner, but kept missing him. There was a buildsheet laying in the open trunk, but never got a good look at it. The car had all kinds of options like chambered exhaust, rosewood wheel, rear defog, etc.

The owner of the Chevelle is a friend of Rick Peters (MR70) if I remember correctly...?

That 1 of 1 1969 Camaro looks an awful lot like a '67.
Very cool styling exercise. I'd really like to hear the story of how it got away from GM.
Very impressive lineup of cars, I hope the show was as well attended as the cars were nice!

I don't see anything that calls the 1 of 1 Camaro a 69 model.

They call it a GM show car made in 1967.

Maybe that warning I got as a kid about going blind is starting to come true, but that looks like 1969 to me.

if you look at the first "9" in 1969 it does not resemble the last digit which is an obviously funky "7"

Rick,

On second thought, wasn't the cowl plenum set-up an over the
counter service item back in the day? I seem to remember
seeing a complete set-up on ePay a couple of years ago that
the seller claimed to have originally purchased in exactly
this way. Anybody know for sure?

Steve
