I'm Chris Tonn, a freelance writer from Columbus, Ohio, and I've been contracted to write a book covering the golden era of Trans-Am, specifically about Mark Donohue.

As I wasn't around during the time, I'll need some help with photos.

Some of the threads here (especially http://www.camaros.org/forum/index.php?topic=7779.0) look quite helpful, but if anyone has period photos that they'd like to share for this project, I'd be eternally grateful.

You can contact me here on the forum, or email chtonn AT gmail DOT com and we can chat.

Once the book is done (next spring/summer) I'll be sure to link it here. The publisher has even mentioned some giveaway copies.

Thanks!

Welcome, Chris.  Another book about the Trans-Am series, as well as Mark Donohue, sounds good to me!

If you guys want to see lots of the old cars racing  go to... ( Revs Digital Library ) look for Albert R. Bochroch photograph collection 1965 - 1969.

Yes the Revs Digital Library is a great resource for old racing photos.  Thanks for posting those, Vince.

I spent two weeks going through every single picture tagged with his name, haha.

With all due respect, this is a picture of the man himself
