Brock Yates Camaro
Steve Holmes:
Just studying this car on the Historic Trans-Am site: http://www.historictransam.com/Drivers/JimReed69Camaro42.html
I was puzzled by the curious rear-end body shape, until it dawned on me the car has had the same treatment as the '69 T/G Firebirds with the rear fenders spliced and extra sheet metal added to widen them for the larger tires.
Is this the same car from Brock's 'Sunday Driver' book?
Jon Mello:
Steve,
I have not read Brock Yates' book so I don't know which '69 Camaro he claims to be driving but I always assumed it was the one that Warren Agor raced, as discussed in this thread... http://www.camaros.org/forum/index.php?topic=12761.0
However, since it is indicated that the '69 Camaro that Warren raced was destroyed at Road Atlanta, I have no hard info on what car Yates drove.

Met him at few races back in the day and he always struck me a very arrogant individual ..........The title of the book more or less describes his driving style.

The Peter Schwartzott 69 camaro was sold to Warren Agor at the end of the 70 season I was told.
Sadly, Brock is fighting Alzheimer's.
