1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
This 1969 SS396 Chevelle Coupe was purchased from Volo Auto Museum in April 1999. This Chevelle began life as numbers matching Frost Green SS396 L35 325hp - 3 Speed Manual Trans. The car came to Volo from Oklahoma repainted “Resale Red” with approximately 60,000 miles. The current owner was able to trace back two previous owners in Oklahoma. The current owner enjoyed the car until January 2005 when he started a frame-off restoration with Custom Cars in LaGrange, IL. For two years prior the owner collected NOS and restored parts to build the car as a “Numbers Matching” L78 375hp M22 4-Speed car. With the help of many knowledgeable 1969 Chevelle enthusiasts the car is a very accurate reproduction of a real L78 Chevelle.
Some of the features of this Chevelle are: a restored GM Tach and Gauges Instrumentation, Chevrolet Cowl Plenum Air Cleaner with correct GM air filter, Gardner Chambered Exhaust System, GM 1969 rolled exhaust tips, GM correct restored AM/FM radio, GM tilt steering column with GM 3 spoke steering wheel. The frame is a boxed GM Convertible frame out of a 1970 Chevelle. The engine is a correct GM 4-bolt #272 casting block, GM #840 cylinder heads, GM #163 intake, GM #065 water pump, #4346 Holley Carburetor, All GM deep groove pulleys, GM #837 alternator with date coded diodes, correct GM yellow-tip dipstick, Jeff Dotterer restored fuel pump. Complete GM Smog System. Engine was built with roller valve train but otherwise modern stock spec components internally. Engine produced 411hp on an engine dyno prior to installation. Correct battery cables, reproduction R59 battery, correct hoses, valve covers and other engine bay details. Correct Paint and Coatings throughout the entire car.....no short cuts. This Chevelle was restored just as GM would have, but only better. The interior of the car was restored by Ogden Top and Trim of Berwyn, IL. It features code #755 black bench front seat interior from Legendary Interior with correct GM Deluxe seat belts, new carpeting, new floor mats, correct floor shifter with correct 4-speed pattern shift knob, working NOS map light rear view mirror, NOS rear window defogger. Car will include AM/FM radio tag, visor sleeve with starting instructions, instruction book and some other reproduction 1969 paperwork. New Firestone "Wide Oval" Tires on GM correctly dated YA wheels. All factory NOS GM "T3" Headlights. The car has won numerous awards including three Chevy Vettefest Gold Spinners; Fall 2006 at it’s first show, Spring 2007 and Fall 2007 when it was also won the Top Gun Award Best Chevelle. 2007 World of Wheels Class Winner and Chevy Vettefest Promoters Pick Best Restored Chevy. 2007 Super Chevy Show at Route 66 Drag Strip Class Winner. 2011 and 2012 Chevel-Abration Top Three ’69 Stock (participant voted). This car also won a 2009 MCACN Show "Concourse Gold" Award and was featured on the cover of Muscle Car Review Magazine July 2008. This car performs and drives as it should and the paint is still near perfect. The car has been kept in a heated garage with a dehumidifier and in a “Car Jacket”. There are approximately 1200 miles on the car since restoration. This car is ready to be shown at any show and compete with the Best. Price $79,900.00.....As of Today April 7th, 2017....New Price $65,900.00 Please feel free to email me with any questions [email protected]. The car is located in the Chicago Area.

Can we see the cowl trim tag?
Looks like Bill Hamels car. Now has a 3.73 rear ratio if so. |
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Yes this is Bill's car. One of the most beautiful chevelles you will ever see!

Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Nice car! One question, though, Dan....are you sure those seat covers are from Legendary? not that it really matters, just a point of curiosity on my part.
|
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Bill,
You and Jim Hanke are correct.....looking back through all of the so many receipts.....Legendary was not even making the seat covers available for the '69 Chevelle at that time.....these seat covers are not from Legendary. Thanks for the sharp eye. Dan |
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Beautiful car! One of the nicest 69's that I've seen! Someone will get a great car, for much less than the cost of the restoration. Good luck on the sale!

Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Dan...amazing car!
??was the cowl air cleaner setup available in 1969...or was that always a dealer installed item?? Beautiful Chevelle! tom |
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Correct Tom....over the counter Dealer Installed.....it you have never been in a car with one.....it's a must - to hear that air being sucked in though that cowl.....without out it, there would be no Cowl Induction of 1970.

Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
You could not duplicate the high standard level of this Chevelle for the current asking price. Especially WITH ALL THE CORRECT - NOS parts.
Dan |
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Had a great time at the NOCC show.
Here's Dan showing Bill's beautiful `69 . https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics..._0044_copy.jpg |
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Pardon me for asking but if it started as a frost green car and you went so crazy with the restoration as to put all of the chassis marks then why wouldn't you also go back to the frost green? Again I am just curious .. I am definitely not trying to be rude
|
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
I do not take you as being rude....great question.
The owner loves Monaco Orange. Dan |
Re: 1969 SS396 L35 / L78 Chevelle in Monaco Orange
Well i never know how someone is going to take what I say... and I just didn't want to come off like a jerk. Obviously the car is in stellar condition is well worth the asking price. I was just curious I guess since he put it through such a high dollar restore then why not go with what it was born as (I get that people hate that green mist color)... Someone is going to get a dynamite chevelle for sure though.
