Hi Mike,
I think I can still see my Hi-Tork labels wrapped around each shock! The rear disc brakes and also the thee-leaf spring certainly looks exactly like the ones Dick put on my 1967 white SS350. However, I never ran four Delco units like that. Apparently someone subsequently did what I did on the early works AAR 'Cuda's and just doubled-up on the Delcos.
I was told my old Camaro was totaled within a year of my selling it to a Chaffee College student of mine in 1969. Even if that were false, I don't think this one in you pictures could be mine, because my sub-frame was mighty battle-scared from dozens of different mounting bracket having been welded onto it. Also, I removed the factory bump stops completely, and this car still has 'em. So alas, I doubt this could be a photo of my car.
But the Hi-Tork dampers were some that I sold somebody while I was in the original Guldstrand Corvette Club - a year or so before I joined AAR.
Cheers,
Gary Wheeler
