1970's

Here's one I found while watching footage of the 1970 TA race at Bridgehampton: John Kinney's #71 Camaro. He finished 16th in that race, the best result of his 2 starts in the 1970 Trans-Am season. Enjoy!

To go with his 1969 TA car, here's Bob Grossman's Camaro as it ran in 1970. His best finish was a 6th place at Bryar. Enjoy!

Here's a winner: American Racing Associates picked up Chevy's first win of the 1970 Trans-Am season with Milt Minter behind the wheel in an exciting race at Donnybrooke. This is a number swap of one of the paint schemes that comes with the ACL TA mod. Enjoy!

Here is the #72 V/J Racing Camaro driven by Jack Westlund in select events throughout the 1970-1971 Trans-Am seasons. From what I can find, a 7th place finish at Edmonton in 1971 seems to be his best result. Enjoy!

This is the #88 Camaro, piloted by Canadian Maurice Carter in the 1970 Trans-Am season. He found success with this machine, scoring a best of 4th at Mid-Ohio and finishing in the top 10 fairly often. Expect more paint schemes, I am not stopping anytime soon. Enjoy!

This is Joe Chamberlain's Camaro as it appeared in Trans-Am events from 1971-1972. Nice looking car. He scored a best finish of 3rd in 1971 at Edmonton with this car. Enjoy!

This is Joe Chamberlain's Camaro as it appeared in the 1969 and 1970 Trans-Am seasons. His best finish in '69 was 11th at Kent, and his best finish in '70 was 9th at Laguna Seca. Enjoy!

Here is Marshall Robbins' Camaro from 1971. There are only 2 pictures I could find of this car, both from Watkins Glen. A model of consistency, Robbins finished 5th, 6th, 7th, or 8th in ALL of his 8 starts in 1971. Enjoy!

I've posted enough Mustangs for the moment, so next are some Camaros! To start off, here's one of my favorites: the #48 H & H Racing Camaro from the 1972 Trans Am season. From the Historic Trans Am webpage on this car: "The number 48 was uniquely chosen for the 4 and 8 being the fourth and...

As a follow-up to the 1970 Bud Moore cars, here are the 1971 versions. Slightly different sponsors, same in almost every other aspect. Follmer was elevated to the primary #15, whereas Peter Gregg took control of the #16. Follmer took 2 wins on the season, but ultimately no one could best...

Here they are: The Bud Moore Fords that won the 1970 Trans-Am title! These are the #15 and #16 of Parnelli Jones and George Follmer respectively. Together they won 6 of 11 events on the year. Enjoy!

Here's one more for now. Marshall Robbins fielded this Mustang for Jerry Thompson in 1972, occasionally driving it himself as well. Enjoy!

Here's another Dan Furey car, this time #61. Unsure of what year this paint scheme was ran, I put 1970 as that seems to be the most likely but I can't for the life of me find anything that 100% confirms this. If anyone knows for sure what year please let me know and I'll update this if...

Here's another team 2-Pack, this time for Shelby Racing's #1 and #2 Mustangs, driven by Peter Revson and Horst Kwech respectively. Enjoy!

Here's a more well-known paint scheme from the Trans-Am series. Ed Hinchcliff raced this beautiful Mustang throughout the 1970, 1971, and 1972 seasons. He ran a couple of numbers, mainly 41 and 81. The #41 is represented here. Hinchcliff was moderately successful with the car, scoring 4 top...

Tope Racing Enterprises seemed to have been busy in 1971. In addition to Tope's own #31, which would see much success in the coming years, they also fielded this #32 periodically for Gene Harrington. This is the car roughly as it appeared at Bryar Motorsports Park in 1971. The engine didn't...

Here is Gary Mathews' #78 Mustang, which he piloted during three races in the 1972 Trans-Am Series. His best finish was 14th at Donnybrooke. Enjoy!

Here's Al Costner's #83 Mustang ran during the 1972 Trans-Am Season. Didn't finish great, but it at least looks nice. More Trans Am skins to come. Enjoy!

Here's another Mustang, Warren Tope's #31 that he raced in the 1971 and 1972 Trans-Am seasons. Tope bought this car from the Bud Moore team at the end of 1970. Enjoy!

For the 1971 Trans-Am season, Bud Moore sold 2 Fords to Troy Promotions, who fielded the #3 and #4 for DeLorenzo and Thompson. They usually ran in the top 5 wherever they showed up. I'm very happy with how these turned out, definitely one of my favorite paint schemes of the era. Enjoy!
