The car is eligible for monterey Trans Am historics, as it raced in its current Sunoco Camaro livery. A great sounding car with a race preped small block 305ci with a Muncie M21 4-speed transmission. This 1970 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 was initially purchased by Don Duncan from Nurse Chevrolet in Toronto, Canada. Don had traded his 1968 Corvette for this Camaro with the intention of having it prepared for racing in Trans Am. He had enlisted John Todds of TODCO Racing to build his Z28 into an SCCA Trans-Am legal race car. Now with a fully raced prepared car, they needed a competitive driver that could bring home some silverware. Canadian race car driver Dick Brown had been looking for a ride for the 1971 Trans Am season but had a hard time convincing local Canadian sponsors to invest in an American based Trans Am series. Prior to the 1971 Trans-Am season, had been trying to find the funds together to get a seat in a Bud Moore Engineering Mustang. He needed to raise to $75,000 to race a Bud Moore Mustang as the #2 team car to Parnelli Jones. Unfortunately, in the end he came up short by about $25,000.00. Dick then got a call from John Todds who asked him to drive this Camaro in the 1971 season. Dick agreed and this Camaro was raced in the 1971 Trans-Am series as a Todco Racing entry. The 1971 season proved to be tough as the car incurred many technical difficulties resulting in multiple DNFs. , For 1972, the car received a fresh new look painted Sunoco Blue and ran under the banner of Sunoco of Canada, Gagnon Spring, and Duncan Chevrolet. During the 1972 SCCA Trans-Am season, this car had much better success than the year prior. In the four SCCA Trans-Am events contested, this car’s best finishes were an impressive 5th place finish at the Road America Trans-Am, and a 6th place at Watkins Glen. Dick Brown also won the Mayor’s Cup Race at the 1972 Molson Grand Prix/Trois Rivieres weekend in this car.
