Strickler Camaro


Lizard Racing

Recommended Posts

I had this '69 Camaro on the shelf, waiting for me to decide what to do with it.

After Grumpy Jenkins wrecked the "Giant Killer" Nova in '66, he ran a big-block Camaro.

Dave Strickler was an early drag racing hero of mine and I remembered that he ran Camaros under the Smith Chevrolet banner.

This was when Super Stock became its own classification and not a single stock class.

Wheels and tires are from the parts box. Decals are Fred Cady. The decal sheet covers the SS/C '69 Camaro and the SS/F '98 Z-28. But he left out the Champion and NHRA stickers.
