Re: Donnie`s new 1969 Dover White L78 Chevelle

Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk paint

Re: Found my 69 Yenko, 649313
Lynn, in 1976 I would say your brother got the better end of the trade, but today it sounds like you made out better. Any progress pictures of your car sounds like you are getting closer. George
