Robert Barg is having troubles accessing the forum but here's what he said to me today about the red #78 Camaro above...
"That 69 Camaro which Rick purchased from Alfie in 72, was originally thought to have been the Mo Carter Camaro, but then we learned that it was also built in the Mo Carter shop, maybe from a Firebird shell? Rick raced it in the Mosport Carter charity unofficial T/A race in 72 but was DNF. Also in 72 I teamed up with him (built a Chev ramp truck) and we raced it in 3 Camel GT races in the (2-5L) class, which Bishop had kept for ex T/A racers - had 3 3rds in that class. I raced in the 73 Lime Rock T/A but the engine blew - cobbled another engine together for the 73 Glen T/A which was red/flagged near the end because of rain and fog and the race finish reverted back to the previous lap. We came in for fuel and put on rains, but got caught out in the scoring and some reports said we were DNF, but not so - was passing lots of cars in the rain when red/flagged, but the scoring people missed our pit stop before the start/finish line.
Rick had business commitments later that year and this car was sold to Leon Alain in PQ (he was a previous T/A racer in a 68 Camaro).
Don't know if Leon ever raced it, but it was apparently burned up in a garage fire - don't know what happened to the remains - had some contact with him a long time ago."
