1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

Is this car legit? I ask because, I am not familiar with it. I don't want to start a mudslinging but, it would be good to know about it before the auction. It's a great looking car!

Thanks for any info.

Mark

Sounds like it could be John Hill's which I beleive is going up for auction at the next Mecum. If so, I understand it is real.

That's John's .... Nice stance.

Re: 1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

Of course, there's no way to know that it's the only black/red L89 built....

Thnx for the link, Dan. I knew I forgot something...

I can't speak for the owner but it has been judged at MCACN and has three partial build sheets.

Sexy car, he is selling a 57-57 M22 COPO Chevelle as well.

Doesn't a member here own a black/red L89 that was featured in several mags back in the 90s? Or was that a black/black car?

JM said it was the real deal before JH bought it at Barrett Jackson a couple years ago

Re: 1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

Would anyone want to offer a price estimate on the car, based on the current market?

Mark Hassett owns an 8800 mile Black/Black red D96 stripe L89 Chevelle. You are probably thinking of this one. I have just located the magazine it was featured in and will pick it up at MCACN.

Isn't this the same car that just sold for $68,200.00 @ Barrett-Jackson 2014 Scottsdale?

Most would agree that John &quot;stole&quot; the car at that price. It appears that he was at the right place at the right time.

Yep, that's the one.

Re: 1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

If anyone has anything they would care to share on that L89, I would appreciate the info. I'm going to Indy so, I will have a chance to check it out. I would be interested to know about originality of the drivetrain.

I think that is Bll Wiemans old car that he bought back at Barrett ?

Re: 1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

I forget the name of the owner before John who restored it?

Re: 1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

So is it a real car? I remember when it sold last year and thought that was a steal.

Re: 1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

Not that anyone needs me to say this, but that was a hell of a deal for the price.

Re: 1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle
 

That is a stunning car ... the exact flavor I like my chevelles to be

The quality of the frame off is amazing. All of the &quot;little&quot; stuff that was wrong was fixed by local AZ guys [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
