Re: 1966 L78 information
I wanted to give everyone an update on my search. No luck on actual engine information. I have however been able to make contact with the spouse of the original owner that was indicated in the warranty booklet and POP. Thank you Pete for your information and links to some of the names in ND. Thanks to bbbently for your stories and encouragement to reach out and make contact. I was able to talk with her on the phone a couple times. She remembered the car but did not have any pics or documents. Only memories. So I took a few pics of the car, wrote her a letter and sent them to her. I got a return letter from her yesterday. Not much help on the search but very cool to get a letter from her explaining that her husband went to buy the car with the biggest motor in the Chevelle he could get. Eventually traded back to dealership for a pick up truck. Coolest thing is the return sticker on her envelope is the same address that is in my warranty booklet. Still at same address 50 years later. Search continues but this has been an exciting experience as well.
