A friend sent me these photos and asked me to post them.

Hi Rick, I’ve been following with interest the thread about Bristow’s Rat Patrol Camaro.
The two photos are from back in about 68-69 when The Rat Patrol was racing at Saskatoon. It’s very possible I was in the stands back then. They are screen shots taken from the Saskatoon International Raceway’s archive thread.

Cool Bristow LS6 cars Jefferson, still looking forward to anything of the Nova.
Great pics of the ’68 Rat Patrol too Rick, thanks for posting also to whoever shared them w/ you.
Looks like you well know the Green LS6 above, when did you inspect it?
I didn’t see any pics of either Rat Patrol on the SIR Archives when I looked, are there more?
First pic I've seen w/ black rear tail pan showing, again it’s an L78 car as Pg.9 VVS docs.
Same Scoop as earlier posted on the trailer shot also Chrondek pic as again below.
What was Cliff Bristow’s Dealer Code?

This was an interesting car, wonder where it ended up.
Auction was back in 2018
Claimed to be a Bristow car.

I am the lucky caretaker of an original paint Cranberry Red 1970 LS6 Chevelle car from Cliff Bristol Motors in Three Hills…
These stories are great to hear, Jefferson posted the pic of my car and the original trunk emblem.
Yes lucky …still original drivetrain, original paint , dents and all…..
