Re: 1969 SS 396 Chevelle L-78 SO (-)Rallye green
 

Hello, I have been asked for a current photo with the NOS quarter and roof restored . It was done by a local shop with over 35 years of experience.The roof is only in epoxy primer so you can see exactly what is there.The only remaining damage is two small dents on the hood (very repairable),a small scratch on the trunk lid and the front windshield.The rear original glass is in very good shape and was removed to install the NOS quarter.The engine was removed for inspection and verification.I hope this clear up some of the questions. If you have any more please feel free to ask.

Thanks Doug

My mechanic showed me this site>
I purchased an L78 rallye green chevelle, on july 19,1969
in pittsburgh, pa black vinvyl top, and buckets, no console,
rear antenna, muncie rock crusher, $4,051.00 sticker. I sold the car in 1972, have tried in vain to relocate. My friend Tony bought a 1969 rallye green 325 hp convertible.

Hello Sam,
bought from AZ chevrolet, frankstown road penn hills,pa.
It was about a 9 week wait from order time to delivery.
the paint was superb. I got a speeding ticket the next night! I was 18 when I got the car. I wanted to buy a Yenko,
but my Dad would not sign for me as Yenko was in cannonsburg,
we lived in Monroeville, PA at the time. Then you had to be
21 to buy a car. The car had manual steering, no gauges, had the darkest tinted windows. the second week I had the car, we put on hooker headers, air shocks, dixco? tach, and
SW guages. originally had a 3:55 12 bolt... in 1970 I went
to 4:56 and eventually to 4:88... the 396 spun a bearing
and I installed an L88 short block. raced at keystone
raceway park. Those were the days.

I know of a 69 SS 396 Chevelle for sale locally...also a -B Ralley Green car, with a black top and side stripe. Original 4 speed car with decent option list. Factory tach + gauges, tilt column, N34 wheel, original bucket seat console car (although it was scrapped when the Hurst shifter was added) with speedminder and rear defrost. NOM, and no paperwork, currently has a rebuilt 454 between the fenders. It can be had at a reasonable but not giveaway price. If anyone is interested, shoot me an e-mail at [email protected] and we can discuss. This car restored properly with Magnum 500s, redlines, and a proper stance would rock. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

I owned a rally green 69 Chevelle SS as a kid. Don't know if it was color change or not. Have no idea about motor as I put a 454 in it. Car may be around Breezewood PA today?
Had a black vinyl top, Cragers; it was very sharp!

Supercar kid, that sure looks like my old car!

Did your car have the options this one has? I can't imagine there are too many similarly equipped 69 Rally Green Chevelles in the Pittsburgh area.

Did you by chance add ladder bars and a finned 12 bolt cover...this car has both.

Re: 1969 SS 396 Chevelle L-78 SO (-)Rallye green
 

Looks like it. When I sold it, It had Cragers,console and rear end housing was cracked (no ladder bars). Would still move but not drivable. Sold it in 1982 after it sat for a while... so inspection sticker looks about right. I'd like to research sticker to see if it was last inspected in McConnellsbug PA.
Please PM details on car. Thanks,Harold
