YOu should be able to find lots of pic's with a search on Penske, Trans Am, Donahue and the like. That is basically one of the most important race cars in history. Check the links to Laguna Seca's vintage events. There is also a great Trans Am history book, as well as "The Unfair Advantage," which is the bio/bibliography for Mark Donohue.

GREAT car.

We actually did an entire magazine dedicated to that car. Let me dig it up

pics 40,41,42.
Some other 1st gen T/A camaros there too, I think I got an interior shot of one because he blew up his driveshaft and tore the tunnel.

A little late but there is a whole hard cover book with hundreds of photos of the early TA cars. If interested I will get name for you. I have it and it is interesting.

The 69 Sunoco Camaro? That is owned by Ken Epsman still I think.. I have a lot of pictures of it from 2000 . It was in the shop at Sears Point/ Infineon Raceway that was doing some chassis work on my race car . If you still need them I will go dig them out .. unfortunatley before I was digital.

Tom Armstrong has it now (I think he still has it anyway) and races it quite a bit still. He usually has it out at the Vintage race over July 4th weekend at Pacific Raceways.


Tom also just purchased a 53 Cunningham and man what a cool car!

Somebody sold a clone of that car on Ebay last year I think. You might want to search around for that car. I can't remember all the details on it but I thought it was set up for some form of racing but to also be a clone of the Sunoco car.
