One of the 3 VIN's for a black `69 SS396 post sedan came back as being sold new at McCormick Motors in Nappanee, IN. I called the dealer and actually talked with the salesman/owner who ordered the car originally in `69, and has been there for 53 years. He thought he remembered who bought the car as it was his nephew. He gave me the nephew's number, who called me back and remembered the car being sold new to an acquaintance/friend out of Warsaw, IN. He gave me the name, but also said the guy was killed in Viet Nam in early `70. The owner of the dealership, Bernie Beer, says he will ask around to see if anyone he knows may know what happened with the car after that. Great guy! When the car is done, I plan on taking it to McCormick Motors to show it to Bernie. He says he'd love to see it as it's fun for him to relive the performance years too. </div></div> fantastic. Fantastic. FANTASTIC. Ryan
