Trans-Am Camaros / Re: Marshall Robbins - Carl Shafer
« on: August 24, 2011, 03:05:27 AM »The original double-adjustable Konis are a very good shock and hard to find these days. To my understanding, the body shell of the Camaro has been severely damaged as a result of that 1984 crash but it was not discarded. Is that correct?
Yes....it was most certainly severely damaged. I actually don't know what came of it. It all went to Vern - I know he sold much of it in pieces, but don't know what became of the shell. I have heard it is in the Phoenix area with the intention of being restored someday, but don't know for certain. I received several calls a couple of years ago from someone from Phoenix interested in details of the car and photos - purportedly for the purpose of restoring the car..
The very first Chevrolet Power Book - the one with green loose leaf pages - had several pages of chassis and suspension drawings of how to modify a stock 1969 Camaro for racing purposes. The drawings are of this car - made when the car was built by the Greenwoods (Chevrolet paid for the original construction of the car).
If I knew how, I could post a couple of "Post Crash" photos of the car...
