I was hailed down by Steve Johns  long time friend from Seaforth     I had seen the Comanche when Leo Medd had it in the 90's  It was his wifes car..  Steve bought it and Rich restored it  They did not paint it.. When he thought of buying it he contacted GM historical...  George called him, and told him to get car  Real leather interior! power bucket seat  almost 40 options  Ram Air 4 4 speed convertible !!!!! It had Marchel driving lights like a Shellby, added on as a part of Comanche pkg  Steve picked up a set in Lebalon? for 1000.00U.S with correct dated codes  here'wink some photos  winkGoderich Square July 18th,09 016.jpg

That is one beautiful rare car. Is it modeled from a Firebird?

How about a little background on this special model for those of us that never heard of it until now! Very neat.

I don't understand having the Ram-Air lll motor and going with the duel snorkel?
Why was the Ram Air pan not used instead.

Wow Carl. I remember this car from 20-25 years ago when Leo first got it. Very few people knew what it was then and kept saying, well it's not a Camaro. I always said, Thankfully your right!
Nice to see it on the road.
