    I've got a picture somewhere of my brother and I next to a hauler like that in the early/mid '70s. It was taken by my dad in the parking lot of a hotel we were staying at in Edmonton and I'm pretty sure it is a mostly yellow Camaro funny car (but it could be a Vega [similar front end] and it could be a Pro Stock. Yeah, yeah, I know, but I haven't seen the picture in nearly 40 years.) :biggrin_25523:

    I'm about 85% on the yellow Camaro FC. Two names come to mind; "240" Gordie Bonin and Jungle Jim, but I don't think either one campaigned in a yellow Camaro.

    I'm gonna have to look for that picture now.

    P.S If it was Jungle Jim's car, it's too bad I was too young at the time to appreciate Jungle Pam. :biggrin_25525:

    Jungle Jim Liberman the fastest man in reverse. He had that signature 6 second warmup burnout to the end of the track. Throw it in reverse and do 100 mph back to the tree.
    As far as I know all his cars were either Burgundy or Blue and always a Chevy.at least i’ve never seen a color picture of a car in other color. He ran Chevy 2’s , Camaro’s and Vega’s with Keith Black Hemi’s. Revell Model’s was his major sponsor. Yellow would be interesting.
