1970 Trans-Am Camaro

We have a '70 Camaro that raced in A-Sedan, GT-1 and Trans-Am (one race) that was driven by James Crittendon and Tony DiLorenzo.

Here are some pictures and videos:

I bought a Bartz engine from Jim Crittenden in the late 70's or so and had it rebuilt and installed in my '69 A-Sedan Camaro.

We subsequently used that engine (with heads updated by Rehr-Morrison's Lee Shepherd) in both our '82-bodied C3-chassised GT1 Corvette, as well as in our '86-bodied tube frame Trans Am spec Camaro.  Heads eventually acquired so many cracks in the valve seats that they were no longer servicable.

Block was still in use in 1993 when my partner and I sold the Camaro.

Very cool! Any idea why only one TA race?

Always love to see another pop up and into the spotlight again. And thank you for the videos!
