Did a miss a separate thread on this 66 Vette? If not, sure would like to see more of this car, it looks beautiful.

No you didn't. I have yet to receive the car. I'll get a thread going on this one when it lands.

Thanks for asking Ken...
I was recently contacted by the OO's SIL. He promised early pix of the car and his wife, the OO's daughter, is asking for first chance if I were to sell.

Bill,

Looks like a lot of Birthday cakes in January.

Awesome collection of 67’s.

Thanks, Chris

This Leeds (Kansas City) L79 Malibu has an 01C trim tag, but was final assembled on January 23rd (the dreaded Monday car LOL) and sent to Morris Chevrolet in Oklahoma City.

Marina Blue with black bench, ECL codes suggest 134 L79 327/325 convertibles built in 1967. M20 4 speed, 3.55 posi. Not quite completed yet, I need to wrap up the interior and snap on the N96 mag wheel covers.

WOW Bill! That car is coming together nicely since the last time I saw it!:beers:

Looking great, as usual Bill! I need to stop by and check this beauty out next time I'm in Waterloo. My LS5 was built on this day in 1970 at the Lakewood plant in Atlanta so we share a birthday.

Bill W,

What wire/cable is running under the “cover” on the RH side of your Malibu?
Also was that cover galvanized or black paint originally?

My ‘65 GTO came with the optional rear power antenna, plus a rear seat speaker.
All the wiring (antenna coaxial, black/white power wires, plus the blue wire for the speaker) run under that protective cover.

I have a spare electric (switch, wiring, cover) assembly.

67since67 01-24-2025 03:24 AM

Beautiful '70 Chad! Let me know when you are up this way.

Chris, I should have known you'd be the one to call me out on that cover! :beers:
This car was, ahem, "restored" :rolleyes2: 25 years ago and the cover, although not rusted, had been painted black with no galvanized left underneath.

On this one it's a rear antenna coaxial only. The Maroon convert has wiring for rear speaker and power top ran through that cover.

Ya know Bill........a build thread would be more than appropriate. It ain't like you're screwing this car (or any others) together with scotch locks and zip ties :scholar:

Sorry Bill, I didn’t intend to call out anyone as I assumed that cover was originally galvanized, but I was just curious.

I really enjoy seeing your collection of Chevrolets, restored and survivors.

PS, I have a fondness for the White on Red long top.

"scotch locks and zip ties" :haha::haha::haha:

Gosh Tim, as you are aware this one has had quite the story....the biggest challenge was dealing with the amateur restoration done 25 years ago. If it wasn't such a rare car with the critical components in place I would have cut it loose long ago.

Birthday Boy with patina

This time 59 years ago this Cameo Ivory on Red ‘66 GTO rolled out of the Fremont plant in California.
I’ve owned it for 34 years.

It’s amazing this rare car (3x2 / Auto) still retains everything it was built with.
Original paint, interior and factory powertrain.

Of the 1759 “YR” built this year most have been altered to a 4 speed and mechanical linkage.
It was a common practice in the late 60’s to toss all that complicated Vacuum linkage that came on these cars.
Not only complex, but extremely dangerous to the unexperienced. I know firsthand.

He doesn’t get out much so allow me to share.

67since67 01-25-2025 02:48 PM

What a great true survivor and what a privilege to be it's caretaker Chris!

I love any '60s red interior and this one is gorgeous!! :headbang:

Build sheet says born on 3/21 but NCRS says 3/22

William 03-21-2025 12:58 PM

Date on the build sheet is typically when it was printed.

Our 67 Z28 born 6.28.67 and sold at Hult Chevrolet 7.15.67. An original deck lid to arrive from Camaro Specialties for its 58th birthday! Maybe redlines, perhaps pinstripes next year?

Another year older. My goal is to spend some time detailing and driving. This is a purpose built car with 456 gears no PS or PB so not ideal for cruising, but open the throttle and run through the gears is all you need!
