1970 Chevelle L78 Convertible
I know its a long shot, but does anyone remember a 1970 Chevelle SS L78 convertible, black cherry 4 speed that use to terrorize the street racing scene in Kansas City in the 1970s.
Thanks |

Is this that car after it was restored? These pictures are from Mecum Indy in '09. I don't have the VIN but this was advertised as an original L78 4 speed convertible with a numbers matching drivetrain. It is an 11B car with a Kansas City body number of 283332.

Chris Cadwalder / Cadwalder Classics restored one, just like this. Non Original Engine, build sheet car.

How about this one? It has Rick's plate on it. I saw this in a museum/ collection in Decatur IL on Oct. 30 2021. Note: this car has washer fluid monitor and the car mrays posted does not. This also a non cowl induction car like the one Rick posted.

That is John G's LS6 convertible I restored for him a couple years ago with a very dusty decklid. LOL. I was storing it there waiting its turn for the MCACN show and keeping it out of my way at the shop. It is now in California.
As for the non flapper hood on my pictures versus the restored L78, the restorer may have added that option when it was restored, who knows. I know there are people on here that know the VIN but I do not have it on either car unfortunately but otherwise very similar cars and both in the same area of Kansas City. |
The car I posted pictures of was restored by Chris Cadwallader. I found some pictures of I believe the same car on Corvette Jim's website. He has a nice collection of Chevys up in Wisconsin. It's my understanding that Black Cherry Chevelles came with white stripes regardless of top color. Could you special order black stripes in '70 on a Black Cherry Chevelle if you wanted them? The car Rick posted photos of had black stripes as well.
