You have a good memory! David Sleeth did a little tweaking on the big block.

Wow, that pretty cool! Any idea if the building from 1967 still exists??
Any chance you could steer me to any original memorabilia, especially license plate frames or emblem?
The original owners address was Lower Burrel. TYIA!!

A HUGE shout out and BIG thank you to Ken (boomer632)

for making this come together!!

I am in conversation with the OOs Art and Jo. They are happy to know their car is alive and under restoration and willing to offer more history. I will get more info without overwhelming them with questions. Seems to have been important in their young lives.

The original dealership building survives and is repurposed as a taxi limo service. I have an original tag frame on the way. - Bill W

Glad I could help out another car guy. Keep us posted. She said she had a pic of the car and her daughter from 70 or so Her 4 year old daughter was using tire iron pretending she was changing a tire.

On Aug 28, 1969 my 1969 Camaro SS396 will be 55 years old. I purchased it in spring of 1981 which means I've owned it for 43 years. It was a daily driver for many years & I managed to put 80,000 miles on it, Now 167,000. The car has gone through 2 restorations. The last restoration was done with either NOS or restored original components. At MCACN 2021 it scored 982 points out of 1,000. I guess it will be with me till the end....Joe
