I have seen the light and I am making the switch from 4 cylinder and lots of boost and going for 8 cylinders and lots of CIs.

The car I am hopefully going to buy is a 1969 camaro that goes buy the name of "Joyrider" and I am trying to find out as much info as possible about it.

I have talked to Clive Cox ( Valley gas speed shop) who used to race it in Pro et but has anyone else got any info / veiws on the car.

TIA

Ran against it a couple of times. From what I've seen it's a very well built car that always ran well. Has a nice low stance and gorgeous paint.

Hi, I believe the 'Joyrider' Camaro was once owned, as was alot of the 68 & 69 Camaro's that are around at one point by my father - Terry Gibbs. If you speak to Clive he should be able to confirm that. I'll see if I can dig out some pics - not promising, but will do my best.

Cheers, that would be great if you found some.
