Default Re: Berger 69 post SS 396 Chevelle

I will have more pics this weekend. Didn't expect to win anything there was a lot of nice cars there. The Camaro club that put on the show was fantastic and was very nice to me. The second owner of the car came walking up and said he had a car like that when he was 16, ever heard that, and come to find out it was his car. The show was just getting over so I let him and his wife drive it! The look on their face was priceless.

Roger Hildebrand and his wife of 39 years. They went on dates together in the Chevelle!

Took Chevelle to the original owners house after the show so he could drive it. It was very cool to see him drive it with his family and the look on his face as he drove it.

Good call.

Imagine the memories for the owner.

Nicely done.

My Dad was sick a few years ago, (under good control now) so I dropped off my Chevelle for him to drive for the summer, if he felt OK he would drive it to Tim Hortons and such. Boosted his spirits, and the car is a car, it has four tires for a reason. TO DRIVE, and TO HAVE FUN.

Thanks for sharing the pics. of the Berger show. That's great you let the two previous owners drive the car; what a neat experience for everybody. Not too many dealerships left with the history of Berger, where you can go to their show and see so many original dealership cars and their owners.
Beautiful car, I bet they were all excited to see you.

I think Rick is a little more &quot;E-shy&quot; than you or I Dan. Takes time to get into this fun stuff.

I am keen to see what SS 396 Post Sedan he has, but no feedback yet.....if needed I'll go drive around Burlington and see what I find...

Ryan
