Thanks Scott, missed that you had already posted that image of Moss in '69 at Edmonton in another thread 

And thanks william for your input re: the rear 2nd. design rear spoiler on the car.

Confirms that it is indeed '69.

Stirling Moss with lady friend talks to Bruce McLaren,  I believe this is '68 Edmonton Can-Am, Maybe '69 ?

Scott ? ? ?

Interesting that this SS convertible looks to have California tags ?

How rare is the silver grill on an '69 RS car ? Was it part of a certain package when ordering, did it depend if it was a Z or regular

 Camaro ? I have two photos in my files, one of a Z and another of a 396 car, both in France with the silver RS grill.

I believe this to be at the '66 Can-Am at Mosport, we see four Camaros in this image, It was posted backwards, I've flipped the

 image.there was already one photo posted here of the driver's meeting earlier.

Bit late here, only came across this thread today, thanks Kurt & Scott for those images of the '68 Camaro with the alternate roof,

 love those in period photos 

Not a Chevy, but to go along with Scott's images of the G.T.O. I have this one in my files.

Promotional Events and Concept Cars / Re: 1968 Camaro Z28 Possibly used as a Pace Car at Watkins Glen in 1968

« on: February 17, 2022, 09:28:57 PM »

In our personal correspondence, I let Mitchell know that the car he is researching might have been the pace car for the 1968 Glen 500 Trans Am race held at Watkins Glen Grand Prix Race Course, Watkins Glen, New York on Sunday, August 11, 1968.  So far, it is the only event held in 1968 that I believe to have been paced by a 1968 Z28.  Click here to view my thread on this particular car: http://www.camaros.org/forum/index.php?topic=17800.0

Scott another interesting thread , I imagine you are talking about production cars, the one-off '68 Z/28 'vert used at Elkhart for the '68 Can-Am wouldn't fall into this category ?

 the listing for V75, offered on full size Chevys (Impala etc) not offered on wagons, and not listed in the book for Camaro, Chevelle,

 or Nova. Price shown is in Canadian dollars

Interesting thread, the Delorenzo Corvair is a significant car, it will be great to see it on track again !

Here's a photo I have in my files of the Delorenzo & Mim's Corvairs in the pits at Marlboro in 1966.

Here are two images I came across of the Schwartzott '69 Camaro, info in the Racing Camaros book, page 139 says this car went

 to Agor for the '71 season.

Some memories plus the photos were posted on a Canadian forum in 2020.
