Mentioned in this thread by Jon Mello, January 22nd. 2012, reply #143 Here's another photo of what I think is the ex Dick Lang

 Camaro in Sweden, looks like it's being loaded into the back of a dump truck ! Maybe it's some sort of weigh scale ?

Fair to assume it was a 67 upgraded to 68 specs?

Found another photo of the ex Lang Camaro in Sweden in my files.

Thanks for posting those, Mike.  Interesting car.  I don't believe those are of the Dick Lang Camaro.  This car has vent windows in the doors and Lang's car began life as a '68 without the vent windows.

Hi Jon, thanks for your reply,  in reply #360 I did say " what I think is the Lang car" what threw me off was the vent windows and

 '68 side markers, are those factory ? or something added due to regs in Sweden ?

MO also mentions this in reply #361

Here's a another more recent photo of what " I think"  is the Lang Camaro in Sweden.

Something I didn't pick up on at first is that the car has the 68 Camaro fender emblem. Maybe the doors were swapped out in favor of the 67 wing windows?

[Jon Mello]

More likely it is a '67 car that somebody tried to update looks-wise by adding the side marker lights and '68 style grille.

Jon, or any else know this one ? '67 "Hugger Camaro" looks like Kent, Washington ?  in period judging by the full size '67 Chevy

 tow car and second '67 Chevy on the right. I looked at the results for the '67 Kent Trans-Am and didn't see that car, might have

 missed it ?

Looks like it's a Canada car. Hey Mike did you know the driver his name is Bob Stevens?

[group/7]

Oldtimer, thanks for your reply and links re: The Stevens Camaro.

VINCEZ28, I did not know personally Bob Stevens, but knew about him, I believe he had a link with Robert Barg (also Canadian)

 who raced the X Mo Carter '67 Camaro and the '69 Camaro, also X Carter. He was successful with the "Hugger Camaro"  '67

 winning the Canadian Touring Car Championship in '68. I wonder if that car is still around ? Jon ? ?

Is Robert Barg still with us ?  he hasn't posted for some time, and an e-mail went unanswered.

Here's a link to some of  Steven's career.
