Hi Jeremy and welcome. I'll bet he'd like to hear from you. What's the story on that cool car? Any early photos?

He has a contact email on his home page. suydamka@comcast.net

Re: kevin suydam
 

yeah i tried emailing him through his website a couple times over the past couple months and i got no response. i am sure he probably gets a ton of emails though. my dad saw that motor option in a hotrod magazine and then went to the dealer in 69 and custom ordered it, there were only 11 ever ordered that way. it would be cool if i could get my dad and kevin together to chat about it. he didnt want to sell it by mother made him trade it in on a more family friendly car in the early 70's

Re: kevin suydam
 

try emailing suydamka@c&amp;#8203;omcast.net directly instead of via the website.

Re: kevin suydam

Nah - just know that he's enjoying life! Someday.....

Re: kevin suydam
 

Are you talking about the Dusk Blue L89 convert ? If so he bought it from Otis Chandler. As I recall Otis bought it from Mitch Moore and had Roger Gibson restore it.

Re: kevin suydam
 

was this car from Minnesota I think I know the person who owned that car who lived in Minnesota before it was restored?

Jeremy Mehrkens fom Mazeppa? Crazy I didnt know your father owned that car new, I knew it was sold new at Grovers in Zumbrota and some how Dale Kiehne ended up with it later on and then it dissapeared. Im pretty sure I have Kevin's cell number I'll try to dig it up tonight and get it to you. Andy Distad

If this is the car I am thinking of I can not remember his first name but his last name was Sorenson, who I bought my L78 Chevelle conv from in 1992 had just sold that car. There was a picture of it on the wall I remember he bought it with no motor and found the block in a shed some where. I seem to remember he sold the car to Mick Price

Re: kevin suydam
 

yes its the convertable and yes it was from minnesota, hey andy yes its me from mazeppa. that would be great if you could find that.
