Re: Coolest or Oddest Combo.....
Thisis a picture of Pat Heneberry's 68 Camaro which he still races today on the NETO circuit. He bought it new in 68 with the intent of running SS/C (like Bill Jenkins had ) but only ordered the car with a 3 SPEED stick, but also with the 375 horse 396 They were hoping for a midyear automatic option so they could run SS/CA , since that didn't happen, he put in a 292 SIX CYLINDER and ran H/MP , the old Modified Production 6 cylinder class and raced against guys like Clem LaChance, Glen Self and others - The car was called the "Six Fiend" then!
He switched over to Super Modified (C/SM) which he ran for a few years into the eighties, then retired the car. Twent plus years later, with the original racing paint scheme as seen in this photo, with a mocked up "318 " (which he use to run 10.60's with, but now is a basically stock 327 shortblock and stock heads with a cam) Instead of the super T10 of old it has a Jerico though -car goes 11's anyway!
Just a cool car-
