So Super John and Leatherman can have been mixed up with each other

It was the car in the 1/4 Million 1/4 mile race. I posted that another site claimed it was "an 'original' COPO' All-Aluminum 427 that ran NHRA SS/C." So was it a COPO or not? Is it around today??
Any idea what wheels are on the back of the Camaro in the first pic in this thread?

Depends on the sanctioning body. AHRA, which Gibb ran, allowed altogether rules/modifications than NHRA.

According to somebody, it was Dick Harrell who made the Rebody of Leatherman Camaro.
Dick Harrell was angry that he had not been paid for the Camaro before the crash.
Somebody also sent me some Pictures of Leatherman Camaro after Harrell rebuilt it .
