This '69 is a beauty! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

I'm partial to '69 Chevelles. Congrats on the magazine piece.

My brother in law dropped of the July Hemmings Muscle Machines magazine last week before even reading it because he knows I am partial to the 69 Chevelle's. Wow, what a story and what a great car. Congratulations Sam for having the insight to keep this beauty. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

When I was going thru each of Wayne's old photos with him, he was careful to identify each person in the photo and tell me about them a bit. He was very proud of the young lad in the next photo helping him hook up the tow tabs. Jamie is his name and he used to come over to Wayne's a bunch to see what he was up to. Wayne always remembered he would show up on a dirt bike eager to help out. Wayne enjoyed his company and recalled that young Jamie was a quick study. Today Dr. James McManaway is a noted Pediatric Opthamologist in Hershey, PA.

This is the Nov. 1990 Hemmings Motor News Ad when Wayne sold the car. He eventually sold the car for $ 13 ,000.

Sam,

More great shots. Wow!! My 69 SS appeared in Hemmings about two years after yours did. I never saved the original Hemmings that I saw it in. I couldn't afford the car at the time. But stayed in contact with the seller and was finally able to purchase it.

Thanks for more great shots.

Phil Woj.
