----All that info and we don't know the original selling dealer?....Bill S

Wow! Black/red is special. POP + Grenning sign off. This one should break records. Love that pad too...

----One of the 69's I looked at before buying my Riverside Gold 435hp was at a dealership in Columbus. Black on black 435hp L-89 convert. The salesman took me into the service area to look at it and the drivers side head and intake were both off. The tech told me it dropped a valve seat, but that it didn't hurt the piston or cylinder and they were making it right. I had heard of a few claims of that happening and decided to pass. found mine at Ed Stines (SP) a week later.....Bill S

----As an addition to this, I forgot one other thing that turned me off the car. It was optioned with a hard top, but the dealer decided (for some unknown reason) to add a paisly (sp) vinyl cover to the hard top. Really ugly!

Frank Berris collection, right at the top of the page...:flag:

Original buyer was out of Tampa, Florida. How many Chevy dealers were there in December 1967? The original BoS is not present.

TimG and I both owned a yellow 68 that kinda sorta maybe got Bloomington Gold.

Ah, misunderstood, again, about what you are looking for. I should just go sit in my corner now.

The yellow car was a great car. Original engine and good paperwork.......
