1970 L78 Chevelle Chariton IA

[carnut4life]

Anyone here ever owned or known of a Cortez Silver L78 1970 Chevelle sold new in Chariton, IA? I stumbled upon the original owner of the car today through work and he told me it was silver with a black vinyl top, black stripes, L78/TH400, cowl induction, buckets, console, tach and gauges. He ordered it new in the fall of 1969 and had for 4 years before he got married and was wondering if it still exist. Said he still has the window sticker for it at home since it was his first new car so if anyone knows who owns the car I'll hook them up with the original owner. I told him if he gets me the VIN I'd post it here so the detectives could look it up to see when it was last registered, hopefully he'll get back to me with it.
