1973 Chevrolet Camaro RS, VIN: 1 Q 8 7 F 3 N 1 0 6 3 9 9. Mary Pozzi and her husband, Dave, rebuilt this car three times. You may recognize it from its many magazine articles, autocross championships, or the 76 gas station pictured on the pump. It has also been featured in video games. Google Mary Camaro and see what comes up. I am the second owner and got it pretty fresh after the final build. I have enjoyed the car but have yet to race it. This car is still in the top five best-built and most dialed-in, second-generation Camaro's in the USA
