The Supercar Registry - Downtown Casino car show

I remember reading about them in Canadian Track and Traffic back in 67. They tested a big block, and I may still have that magazine somewhere. But now I'm wondering about this car I saw at our cruise a couple of weeks ago.

Although it doesn't have the wheels on it, it's possible that the person restored it as a stock Camaro, not knowing it was a Panther. If indeed it really is a Panther?
This car stood out for me, maybe it triggered a memory.

Interesting...
Were any Black Panthers known to have been shipped as Vinyl Top cars?. And is this one originaly a VT and gold interior car?.
If an original Canadian car, GM docs would surely be the best place to start and see if a Gorries' dealer code delivered car?.
If not it's still possible but tougher to find out much less prove?.

The original owner SB B'Panther car shown in this thread is the only real one I've ever known of.. I've heard of others but never seen anything that looks like it may be genuine?.

I always wonder why whenever there's an article on these cars does the ZL1 thing come up?.
Although very well connected, it's doubtful Gorries ever put a ZL1 engine in one of these cars when new?.
Perhaps someone's memory is confusing L89 aluminum heads w/ a ZL1 block?.
And you'd think the quoted 435 Hp would indicate a 'Vette tripower engine anyway??.

Good ol' Track and Traffic!. If you find your mag Striper, maybe you can lay a few scanned pages on us here?.
Keep and eye peeled for an article on Toronto's Mainway Ford dealer Mustang SuperCar too, the '67 Stallion..

T&T and Wheelspin were the greatest Canadian mags ever!. Sad to hear Dizzy Dean passed away a few months ago..
