Jon,

City Chev Olds Ltd., 98 Main Street E., Hamilton, Ont was purchased by Mo Carter in the early 60's and this is where the 1967 Seq.#24, Pre Prod. Z-28 Camaro was delivered.He then built a new dealership ,Maurice Carter Chevrolet Oldsmobile, Ltd 155 Cannon St. East, Hamilton, Ont., advertised as Canada's Largest in late 1968. This later became just Carter Chev Olds Ltd and today is once again City Chev Olds Ltd., under new ownership.I trust that clears up the Corporate confusion.
With reference to your second question, from all records that I have "Mo" ran #8 on all of his cars from 1966 up to and including May 16,17 1970 with the exception the 1968 Camaro which occasionally had to use #80, ie. Mt. Tremblant in August of 69. As for picture???? The 1967 cars ran under City Chev Super Sports Ctr., City Chev Olds Super Sports & Compact Centre, Hamilton, Ont., and City Chevrolet Oldsmobile Ltd., from all records I have. Trust this is of some help.

Don.

1969 Z-28, "Mo" Carter Trans-Am Camaro

Hi Don,

I'll try and find that ad for the Yenko Stormer and scan it. Be patient as we have everything packed away in the basement right now while we do some pre-move renovations [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Do you have any idea what happened to Mo's '67 Z?

Thanks,

Don,

I was confused by the way it was worded that maybe City Chevrolet and Maurice Carter Chevrolet existed at the same time. I am clear now that that was not the case. Thanks for clearing that up. I have an entry list for the '67 Watkins Glen sedan race (see attached) for your records. The car ran that race as #88. I also saw that Carter's '68 ran at the '69 Daytona 24hr as car #18. Lots of times, at the big endurance races at Daytona and Sebring there were a lot of entries and you weren't always able to run your usual number.

-Jon

Jon,
Thanks for the update,however, I did know about Daytona, Sebring and Michigan in 68 but totally missed the 1967 Glen Race. I had most of the Glen Lineups including the June 25 race .As you know my old Gary Morgan Trans-Am Camaro ran most of the Club Races at the Glen so I had the info but just did not pick up the "Mo" Carter entry. Thanks again,
Don
