I found these cool Pro Stock pics over on the Yellow Bullet


Wouldn't some of these be cool at the Supercar Reunion?

The Green Early-'70's Camaro pictured above is really one sharp machine! I just love those particular cars with L-88 hoods on them. They just really look natural on those cars. It's a shame that Chevrolet never put any kind of neat fresh-air or scooped-type hood on those 1970-74 Z/28 Camaros. One of the few Musclecars that just had a flat hood no matter what engine came in them. What a downer!

That's when Pro Stock was fun to watch; real cars, some even had manual transmissions. The Pro Stock cars of today are nothing but fiberglass charicatures of the factory cars and they all have automatics.........yawn.

I beleive they use Libery 5 speeds. But you are right about them NOT being what the class was originally. Not even close! I remember Richie Zul used stock BB rocker arms on his camaro and set the record.
