1. Owner: Jerry Schmidt
1969 Chevy Camaro Z/29 - The Blue Maxi
I (IROC_Mike) am submitting The Blue Maxi for my friend Jerry Schmidt who sadly passed away a few weeks ago at the age of 76.
It was the cover car in Car & Driver Magazine in July 1969 and the Feature Test Car in August. He bought it from the original owner in April 1971 and maintained it in pristine condition, but would drive to many weekly cruises in the North Jersey area.
Out of over 1000 cars that were registered for the Nationals, this car was chosen to win the highest award at the event and one of the highest in the country: the historic Vehicle Association's "This Car Matters Award"! The car is now on the world stage and is going to be seen by millions with all the attention its been getting at the Nats.
IF he is awarded COTM I'll be sure that the NJFBOA sticker is displayed somewhere with the car as it is going to be documented by the HVA for submission to the same Registry VIN 10001.
It would be a great honor for his car to receive COTM especially considering he died this month.
2. Jon - Punkmaster 98
1987 Pontiac Trans Am GTA
Purchased this car a few months ago cause it was in way better shape than my 92. Transferred the drivetrain of my 92 over to this car and am driving it everyday. Currently commuting to jersey city with it. (you can find me tearing up the turnpike)
Cammed 6.0, longtubes with full 3in exhaust, GMMG catback, 3.55 geared Ford 8.8. Built 4l60e with 3200 FTI stall. Custom SFC from Matt Walter
