Has Bunkie Knudsen's personal Z16 been accounted for?

Re: Lost Muscle Cars
 
Just to give some hope to everyone out there, Facebook worked for me trying to find an old Camaro I was looking for. Quite a few months ago I put a couple posts out in some car-related groups on FB that I was looking for a specific '68 Camaro and about three weeks ago a guy in the group (David Miller) posted up a link to an eBay auction and attached my name and it was the exact car I hadn't seen for 30 years and I was able to buy it. So, don't give up hope and I'd suggest putting your message out on numerous groups what you're looking for and you just might find it. The interweb has made the world a lot smaller place. Good luck.

Facebook as much as I hate it has been great as far as finding old friends and cars. Even FINALLY located a photo of a 68 Yenko Camaro at the drag strip that I was hoping to find and completely by accident. The internet can be a great thing.

That's a great setup, I enjoyed some of the folks posting on their cars. Going to make that a favorite. Btw, had fun parking next to you at the barn finds this past November. That car you have is quite interesting.

Thanks Bob! It's sure a lot of fun in that section. Plus you don't feel guilty for setting up chairs :-)

I'd like to know more about the 1969 Dick Harrel Chevelle that's missing

69hurstSC 12-01-2015 04:18 PM

Re: Lost Muscle Cars
 
Mike,

The Harrell Chevelle falls under the &quot;recently discovered&quot; category and is a well known car now.

Re: Lost Muscle Cars

The missing last T/A ragtop was recently found, too.

Re: Lost Muscle Cars
 
Correct Steve. I've found that these cars are moving targets. Rick is helping with providing pics of his T/A. The story is an incredible read regardless.

Also, I believe we're really close to updating the Grumpys Toys Camaro story too. Better get this book published before more info changes lol.

Hey, finding these cars just creates the need for a sequel book! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: Lost Muscle Cars
 
Agreed. I'm already amassing some stories. Missing 69 Yenko Nova anyone?

Hi there, can add yenko nova story, to your post. An iowa/nebraska dealer ,Mac chevrolet sold many supercars, #22 zl1 black copo etc .three 69 yenko novas . One LB found original owner,sold, believe it's in NY. FG found . Third missing, crashed and ended up in a body shop Harlan,IA, all emblems removed repainted possible yellow. I purchased two of the yenko badges from bodyshop sitting in a junk box . rumors of the car being a terror in that area, for years street racing , story ends . Body shop didn't save records of transaction. I did link someone with access to Mac chevy records verifying vins and paperwork.

As the Joker in The Dark Knight once said, &quot;And here...we...Go!&quot;

The 100 Limited Edition signed copies of Lost Muscle Cars are available for preorder. The books will ship in April when they hit the warehouse, so this is the time to grab a signed copy before they're all accounted for.

I will happily personalize copies at MCACN if you bring them there. I know I'll be collecting autographs from the many contributors!

I've been looking for a hugger orange 69 Camaro SS vert with std black interior with fold down rear seat that I sold in the late 70's near Auburn/Syracuse NY. It had a narrow rear spoiler on it in primer and appliance dia-mags at the time. Last seen in the early 80's...

Share photos if you can.

FYI, the book is now in the warehouse :-) I look forward to feedback on the book, good and bad :-)
