Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
Are you sure the car isn't British Racing Green? It can appear black..
|
Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
I took the picture to my body guy today... he thought it was a dark blue. But now that you say it, I can see the green as well.
I told him I'm going with Black & Silver though... go with the Maco. |

So you would need to upload the pictures from your hard drive to a site like Photobucket, then you can link the pictures for everyone to see. |
Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
The car was black--looks like the car was parked on grass when they took the photo (color reflection)--
|
Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
Do you have any color pictures of it Joe?
|
Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
No--I had seen the car at Motion ---I was at the car show back when and it was black--
|
Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story

The full cover
https://www.yenko.net/attachments/123...8-10-cover.jpg [ QUOTE ] COVER: If you're looking for the ultimate mind-bender, this is it! Phase III SS-427 Camaro is the only supercar offered in the world which is guaranteed to run 120 mph in 11.50 seconds or better on a sanctioned NHRA-AHRA quarter-mile track. A full-scale test appears Page 39 of this issue. The engine is the aluminum-head L-88 which is an extra-cost option on the Camaro. [/ QUOTE ] |

I know that nobody really cares about this car now... but here's another picture of it anyway.
https://www.yenko.net/attachments/124417-MCR-1968-p1.jpg Anybody happen to know what issue of Muscle Car Review this article is from? |
Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gifperiod photo---------It also answers the question of the White camaro---Joel had said it was a gold color , but wasn't sure if it was a 350 or 396--this article confirms both questions --- https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif--I think Supercar kid was leaning towards a 350----Erik you win a cookie https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
Awesome Photo. Like to know the issue as well, I am sure I have it, but finding it is another story.

Re: "Mindbender" '68 Phase III story
I've got more crappy b&w photos of the Supercar Club Camaro... it always appears white.
That article can't be all that old, because Muscle Car Review isn't that old of a magazine. I just got the 2 page article off of e-bay recently, the guy didn't know what issue it came from. All the photos came from Joel's personal collection. Would be cool if Mad Mike could scan all of Joel's photos for him https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif I'd even drive down & help https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif There's also mention of film (probably super-8?) footage as well... that is disappearing. |

Re: Supercar Club Camaro
Is Xeroxed that ad & sent in $5.00 with a nice letter requesting membership last Fall..
Tilden Automotive sent me a nice "Thank You" letter stating I should stay away from the brown acid & a Coupon booklet good for any repairs needed by Dec.29th. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif |
Re: Supercar Club Camaro
I think if you sent Tilden a C note, they would have made you an Honorary Member-- https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Re: Supercar Club Camaro
The place where I work out in Mountain View CA has a number of vintage (1960's television-related) ad's blown up to about 24" x 36" and framed, hanging on the wall. This is one ad that would look good like that.

Re: Supercar Club Camaro
The "white" car is actually butternut yellow and is Reb Browns '67 RS/SS car featured in Street Power magazine in mid to late '70's. Last wherabouts of car was in Conn.
I've seen that pic in one of the mags in color and it was definetly 100% butternut. Also Reb Brown claimed his car was the old Motion race car. |

Here ya go whitetop--I had remembered it white , so I dug out an old mag and it does look like pale-yellow,----photos don't forget-- https://www.yenko.net/attachments/124634-Scan0020.jpg -- https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
Joe Mason /Conn,--had taken over the car after Motion, ---Maybe your friend Reb Brown picked it up from him???? |

This is the one I remember,--if there is an RS out there https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
I'll e-mail the article Jeff-------- https://www.yenko.net/attachments/124644-Scan0022.jpg |
Re: Supercar Club Camaro
Joe, is that '67 Olds on the cover a Motion prep car??? I see Markowitz on the side and know about the '68 Olds they prepped. I'd love to see the rest of the Motion stuff in that issue too. I don't have that one. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Supercar Club Camaro
Pre-Motion----ED

Re: Supercar Club Camaro
I think Reb Browns car is not the same as this one. Reb's car is an RS/SS model. The motion Joe G posted is a non RS car and was purchased from the Motion Supercar Club in '68 by Joe Mason who was the younger brother of Charlie Mason. Charlie was the original owner of my 67 BM Chevelle.
Here's Reb's car. https://www.yenko.net/attachments/63739-File0080.jpg |
Re: Supercar Club Camaro
https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif article and car COPO--------------I had to double check with someone who has a better memory than me-----That Camaro(B/M-Joe Mason)--was white---Just info--
