Cool!

Response to Just an ol' Tempest drag race car on ebay......

What's more amazing is that a.) the exterior doesn't give any hint (faded decals, race car lettering, etc.) as to what the car really was and b.) lacking an engine, rusty and in need of some heavy repairs, amazing someone didn't junk it or merely do a cosmetic restoration, dump in a SBC and drive it until it did finally hit the crusher.

See the CC article below. Some cool cars here too. The ZL-1 Camaros were likely among the rarest of all GM's built. Saw these cars when new (Dick Harrell's) but nobody really bought one as the price was IIRC over $10,000. The factory racers got almost all of these cars but a few were sold to Joe Six Packs.....wish I was one!
