When I told Ryan 10-12 cars in this display would be perfect, I think he thought I was nuts, (OK, I am; lol) but he agreed to take on the challenge... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]
My hat is off to Ryan along with PostSedan Dan, along with all of the owners who will be joining us. As I often say, close your eyes for a moment and visualize this one... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img] Bashton MCACN Managing Member |

Most of all I have enjoyed meeting/getting to know the owners of these great cars. (I call them SUPERCARS I don't care what the definition may be) I have felt a little like a guy who gets to throw his first football at the superbowl, but my son Jamie provided some excellent advice from Star Wars. As per YODA: Luke: All right, I'll give it a try. Yoda: No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try. Go stand in the end zone Bob!!!!!!!!!!!put your hands out!!!!!!!(This comment should read as humour as I don't know s### about football) Ryan PS: I have a couple more L89's in my sights..........and if you read my goals from DAY1 I want to have a rusty POS barn find L89 at MCACN........still nothing........come on guys need your help on this one!!! |
Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
L89 #4. Rick Nelson (Musclecar Restoration and Design, Inc) is bringing an Autumn Gold 1970 Chevelle, L78/L89. The owner is Michael Rothberg. Thanks Michael and Rick!!
The summer 2014 edition of Chevelle Chevy's Mid-Sized Muscle has a great article by Chuck Hanson about this "LIGHT-HEADED" 1970 L89 Chevelle. The L89 option was selected in error, one of 18 produced. A nice mistake if you ask me.

Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
Thanks Ryan, just so no one is confused, we did not restore this car as it was restored by the previous owner Brian DeJongh and his friends. I only helped Brian with technical advice for several years while it was being restored and I am just helping my customer take care of the car while at the show.

Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
We have three spaces available.
One spot is very likely taken by a great car that I can't mention till registered.....Tease. I still have no POS Barn Find L89.....please phone a friend for me and start the conversation.... Ryan |

Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
Congrats go out to Kenny Pasco and Frank Arone, along with the owner of the Garnet Red 1969 Chevelle SS L89 convertible that took top honors at the recent Hemmmings Muscle Machines show this past weekend.
Yep...you'll be seeing this one, previously shown at MCACN "in progress" in all its finished glory, November 22-23. And as if that isn't enough, we will also have another '69 Chevelle SS L89 convertible, (as seen in the previous post)which is joining us from The Styles Family Collection out of Florida.
