Completed plate frame- plate project.
Will take our chances on wrong front plate.
Plates that were on it had "MEDINA" but that was not done in 1069.
Keeping those along with everything that came with car.

Big "Thank You" to a generous person here for the frames.
Did not want recognition and we will honor that.

Picked more NOS goodies up for it and will add that when car is back out for more documenting.

What a great Chevelle. I was soooo tempted when it was for sale!
Glad it went to someone who understands the significance of the originality of the car. It's in good hands.

Dave you have a great car and I believe your the best person to care for it moving foward.

Thanks all.
To set record straight "OLE BLUE" is Anns car.
I am just the obsessed babysitter.
She thinks I am a few steps off the deep end but she understands.

She drove a 68 SS hardtop 79- 83 with a 454 4 spd so she has a few now.

Car is well oiled and will stay that way.
We are not car show people but want to share details with any interested.

The Boss and her car on way home from Cleveland and at home
She could not get the key out.
She did not have it in reverse.

----Medina. My home town. I don't know the car, but in my defense I was attempting an education at Ohio University (that ultimately failed) during 69. I did find time to buy a new 435 Corvette from Ed Stinn though....Bill S

I did not finish at the U of M either.

Address on title was on Valley Drive in Medina OH.

Must have moved there from Cleveland in 1995 as that was when the title- registration was updated.
He kept detailed records of mileage, dates, oil changes, maintenance and oil consumption.

Will check next time we are at box.
