Re: Has anyone seen a Hugger Orange '70 SS-396?
mr70, I looked closer at the record I have and it's actually a factory order written on a generic dealership sales order. It doesn't have RPO codes or anything, but "Factory Order" is written (very lightly) in the upper corner. My mom also recalls this being the order slip they gave to the dealer, so Bauman Chevrolet must have completed the formal order on their own. Knowing this, the February 9, 1970 signing probably indicates a March, 1970 factory build... so the VIN is B165352. Cool!
GaryH, I have an uncle in Gibsonia (about two miles back from the Route 8 Turnpike entrance). I'm not sure if Deveraux Chevrolet is linked to our Chevelle salesman or not. He was apparently a pretty young guy (very early twenties) when he sold the Chevelle to my parents, so it's possible that he could have made a life of it. I wonder if they'd have any records...
1967Z28, the '67 Camaro was purchased from Marhefka Chevrolet in Windber, PA. The color is actually Royal Plum, a dark (almost blackish) purple.
