The car will be piloted by driver Alan Morris and co-driver Daria Khachi, both of Ontario. 2 width:500px;height:287px American muscle car and perennial Mustang rival, this 1986 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 will carry Brad Melendy and Wayne Lorenzen of Gander through the Targa course. 3 width:500px;height:207px Crew member Robert Adams of the Year One racing team cleans the windshield of the classic 1965 Mustang, a veteran competitor in Targa Newfoundland.
