Hi all,

This is the Post Sedan that came for sale near the same time as the car Dan knows of, but either they added a stripe of they both have 8500 original miles, or one is a clone of the other?







I think it is the same car just with the stripe added, here is the engine bay of the car Dan knows of.



Next riddle: Do you know of a Maroon L34 4spd 300 Deluxe Hardtop survivor, one re-paint, low low miles, approx 6-7 years ago.......

Finally,

I though you knew about, or restored them all.

That one sold one or twice a few years ago.

This 300 Deluxe Coupe looked like a perfect car.

It sold once in original condition (once painted) then with an engine bay restoration.



















Nice one eh.

Ryan

Why, Why, Why the plastic cowl covers [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

At the time they obviously did not know where to get the correct seat material. Rear trunk seal was also replaced. I wonder if he kept the original valve covers......perhaps may be worth a call, if you have his number?

Great Chevelle.

Dan

Rick,

Great story.....I can see Ralph doing just that [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

Ha, perhaps Al tells that to everyone..... but now after these facts, I believe your Chevelle may be the First 1970 Chevelle to win both awards and Greg`s was the First 1969 Chevelle to have won both awards.

Two Fantasic Chevelle`s [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Got a call last night a freind who's a roofer was doin a job around the corner from my home ( ST. Clair Shores, Mi) and he said the owner of the house opened his garage and there sat 2 69 chevelles. One being a Maroon/Red 69 ss 300 deluxe post car. So he started asking questions. The Owner said he was the original owner and the car was completely original. He said the owner pulled the original motor and replaced it with a 427 when the car was first bought. Said the original motor was/is stored in the corner of garage.According to my freind the car has very very low original miles. Yea I know almost sounds like a fantasy story. lol Im definitely gonna look into it for myself.

My question to all of you is, does anyone know or seen this 69 ss post car and Im gonna approach this gentlemens home just to inquire about the car but how/what should I say. I dont want him thinking im after his car if it even exists. First I have to locate the home then im gonna drive by until I see the garage opened to see what's in it. Any other suggestions?

Roofers find all the neat cars! Thats how my black 72 Formula 455HO was found. During a roof estimate, the owner's widow opened up the garage, and there it was.
