I had a 1969 Javelin with the 390 V8, actally a nice looking car. I just couldn’t get the auto tranny to hold up even after getting it rebuilt. Mark Donohue drove the Javelin to I believe three Trans-Am championships.
Actually, Donohue’s first two Trans-Am championships were in Camaros. There’s a fellow up here in the SF Bay Area that owns the Javelin he drove, along with several other vintage race cars.
