[quote=vette5762]Zedder: Any more info on the gold car on c-list, did you see a pic of the trim tag ? Unofficial count of twelve is a long way from 50. Of the 20% number from CRG does the private registry confirm 50 that were built or 50 still remaining today ? [/quote Proteco plate and purchase contract for the gold Craigs list car. Notice the 273 posi rear.

An M-21 (close ratio) and 2.73s? So a dog off the line but a runner at the top end?

Interesting thing is the orig. owner lived in Milford Michigan. That is where the GM proving grounds is.

Default 1967 L78

'

Is anything known of Anthony B's war service record, note the Jan '68 ad below from Lansing MI which is 50 odd miles from Milford?
If seeking more history, Ancestry.com lists an Anthony B. who passed away in Oakland MI in '78 also there's a phone # online for a 78 year Joan in Milford.
I have a bunch more 67/68/69 L78 Convert' ads saved...better posted here or over in the Old Newspaper Ads thread?

Anybody know if this car is an original L78 or just a nice clone? It was at Mecum Indy in 2009. Unfortunately I didn't write down the VIN or take a picture of the trim tag.
