The ignorance on that site is appalling... too much to put up with unless you have a purpose, good luck Rick, I love L78's especially in Black!

Unless I missed it, how do you know it's a real SS, if not a real L78 car?

Ken, your close,...very close on your guess of BC , but the L78 post car ended up in Calgary, Alberta. Still driving it, hav'nt done the engine bay yet, but got it back to mostly back to how it left the factory,with the correct door panels, bench seat back in and all re-covered correctly, carpet out and vinyl flooring put in ( repo flooring, not original, but still hunting).... That car sure gets a lot of interest when it's out

Bob,

You and Helmut can split the costs of shipping both &quot;Black&quot; Post Sedans to my next 1969 SS396 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Reunion.

I would consider that if the numbers were in your favor, but unfortunately most of the Real Post Sedan's are in the U.S.

Start planning on making a trip in 2014.

I have a lead on who &quot;Cowboy&quot; was. Apparently he bought the car in the late 70's and has passed away now.
The same guy that gave me that lead knows the guy that Cowboy bought it from, and will be talking with him soon.
I don't know if he will be the original owner or not, but it still will help get me closer to finding the early history of this car.
Also it is believed that that guy will have old pics of the car. I sure hope so.
Stay tuned.
