There's nothing '67 left on that car, even the vent windows are gone!  :'(

This is what happened to the 67 camaro that I drove for Al - was  raced at the pavement track Pinecrest Speedway near Toronto -
was wrecked and parted out in 75/76.

Note that Will Cagle, famous NE modified dirt racer, was recruited to drive the Jockos 68 camaro at the 72 Lime Rock T/A - car only lasted a few laps before overheating.

Good thing Jocko's '67 didn't end up looking like this one.

Sadly there were lots of early Camaros which met their fate on the bullring dirt ovals and short tracks. The most amazing thing about this car is that it has survived at all.

There was another first gen speedway Camaro for sale just recently, which appeared in the movie Clutch, from a couple years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8KupAUczy4
