MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
 

Hello Fellow Muscle Car Lovers.

BIG NEWS [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

This year I will be setting up a Showcase of 1969 Chevelles and El Camino(s), with the hottest 396 available...........the 396/375 horsepower L78 with the L89 aluminum cylinder head option.

MY GOAL: is to gather 12, Fully Documented, Real Deal, Best of the Best, L89 Chevelles/El Camino(s) to highlight the very special, very rare (400 made) L89 option. I plan to include at least one of each body style which could be ordered with the SS 396/375 hp L78 option and the L89 aluminum heads.

MY DREAM: is to find L89's in every possible condition, such as Survivor, Restored, Day 2, and Vintage race car.

MY DREAM OF DREAMS: is to find a ratty, filthy, neglected, never seen before by anyone but the original owner, BARN FIND L89.

Now my request to the Muscle car community.......................please help me find 12 of these rare beasts. (I have feelers out to several owners, and will share as soon as they are officially registered)

Please: Post replies, PM me, E-Mail me, or call me at (519) 846-0598, with any leads on L89 1969 Chevelles. Don't be shy, and please don't assume I'll know about certain famous cars. I would hate to miss one sitting out in broad daylight.

SPECIAL DISPLAYS;

Chevrolet L89 Showcase; Most of us know all about Chevy’s hot 396/375 horsepower L78, but did you know they also offered an aluminum head version? This very special gathering will feature only real highly documented examples of Chevrolet’s hottest 396 powered muscle machines and Corvettes.

I am specifically taking care of 1969 Chevelles and El Camino(s), feel free to contact me or Bob Ashton directly about any Chevrolet L89's.

Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
 

And looks like our good friend Rick Nelson may have a particular 1970 L89 Chevelle for us also.

Thanks go out to Ryan Weaver for taking the lead on this one and also to Dan Vasic for jumping in to assist.

Now...let's see if we can make this the largest gathering of documented real-deal L89's ever gathered under one roof. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img]

You can probably get a couple guys in Florida to help you &quot;build&quot; whatever you want.

Kidding of course. Great way to showcase some serious muscle.

As far as I know this 70 L89 is the only true documented with full known history Chevelle in existence. It is no longer owned by Brian D.

I hear what you are saying, but I will keep the door open for a second 1970 L89, just in case a never seen before, dosumented, one owner, convertible shows up at your shop for certification. (I have very very high goals and aspirations for this Showcase, like everything at MCACN, more/bigger/better/rarer/you have got to be kidding me, than you can imagine)

Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
 

Toss an L89 Corvette in the mix from 1967, 1968, and 1969. That would be cool.

Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
 

Like this one w/6k org miles!

Re: MCACN 2014 Chevrolet L89 Showcase
 

Wow...details needed.

Obviously...we would LOVE to have this one in the MCACN show.

Perhaps an additional <span style="font-style: italic">separate </span>block of real L89 Corvettes is in order? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Great plan Bob,

That is a killer Vette.

We will find a great way to integrate the L89 Vettes.

The <span style="font-style: italic">new owners </span>of the Blue '69 L89 Chevelle convertible have been located, and I am happy to say they, (cough-cough, her) are <span style="font-style: italic">huge </span>supporters of MCACN.

They have already committed their recently acquired 1970 428 CJ Cougar XR7 convertible to the show, but they have shown multiple cars with us in the past, so.... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Cough, cough, let's not forget that the Cougar Rag is a Ram-Air, which makes it 1 of 4 built and the only one known to exist.
