1969 CHEVELLE L-78 CONVERTIBLE FOR SALE

[Bill Pritchard]

Jim,

I would have one more favor to ask [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Please do yourself and the hobby a favor and do not refer to this car as a "survivor" as you have in the eBay listing.

I realize that Websters does not have an appropriate definition for the word as it relates to collector automobiles, but I think most reasonable people in the hobby know (somewhat arguably) what does or does not constitute a "survivor". A car which, by your own description, has had new fenders, quarters, and paint, rechromed bumpers and trim pieces, floor and trunk pan repair or replacement, stainless brake lines, a replacement engine block, and missing smog equipment surely does not fit most peoples idea of a survivor. You have a very nice car and have done a great job describing it in detail for potential buyers. It is what it is, and I suspect you'll have no problem selling it, but please reserve that term for the few cars still around that really qualify as such.

I will now get down off the soap box [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]
