What engine is/was in this Green 1970 SS Chevelle?
Any other particulars you can relay?

[BARN FIND]

I think it was a 396, I will be in Pittsburgh in March and I will try to look it over. Over the years some parts have been snatched off it or maybe sold I do not know but I will try to get some info. I will say that if I remember correctly it looked stock/unmolested the first time I saw it (1978). If I can I will get the VIN.

No, this one never sat outside. However, there is a green 1970 SS Chevelle sitting about 50 feet off the road with a tree or two growing in or around it on "Conway-Wallrose Road" in western PA. I first saw it in 1978, and at that time it was NICE . I saw it again last summer...it is not so nice now. And yes, everyone I know that has seen it over the last 27 years has tried to buy it although it may not be worth much now.

[/ QUOTE ]Barnfind, The original owner of my yenko chevelle said that he thinks that green 70 ss car is an ls6! The story is the kid died in vietnam and they threw a tarp over the car and it has not moved since! He says people have tried to buy it and they will not sell it,He said the thing is totally rotted.

I think this is a different car. I was wrong, it was silver. Here are some pics of its current sad condition.

found a 73 trans am 455hd, 4sp, 12 bolt complete car. Bought for $100. had to cut the tree out from rear floor that grew up through back window. Made some good money off that one. lol

I have come to the realization that these Pack Rats suffer from a strange sense of Delirium! They truly believe that someday they will get it together enough to actually work on the Damned Cars or Their Property or whatever else it is in their life that they clearly cannot tend to. it is a very frustrating process for Car enthusiasts to deal with as we want to Rescue and restore while the truly deranged are content on watching Gold turn to Dust! They just never see the transformation. My tip of the day to all is quite simply this: Continue to Call. Keep "Stopping by". eventually "Somebody" is going to score. It may as well be you! I once scored a 67 SHELBY GT350 the firtst time I knocked on the door! The guy opens the door and asked what I wanted. I told him I wanted the Car. He laughed and said, "100 guys have been to the door over the years and I told every one of them, "No"! Then, just yesterday, a guy stopped by and asked to look the car over. I realized it was time to let it go as I just will never get to it. I gave him a price and he said he would be back. He never showed. I Seized the Moment and asked the price. we went and looked the car over, I had $600 in my Pocket and Came back within 2 hours with a Flatbed and the Balance due. Moral to the story is, Some Clown was a day late and a Dollar Short. Do Not Be The Clown!!

This is'nt really a great find but it pertains to 12bolt's comment. My buddy's father has an old edsel sitting in the weeds in the back yard, and for some reason he feels this car is worth a fortune as it was the car of the day back than. I've tried to convince him that it was a lemon of a car than and it is now. However we may feel about the car, he has let it sit in the garden slowly sinking and rotting away, and is basically worth nothing now, but yet someday.......... There is no talking to him to at least store it properly if he thinks it's worth something. He also has a 79 t-bird he bought brand new with 5000km on it. He bought the most basic model with the intention of storing it as a collector piece as it was the last year of the big birds and theres no telling him anything different.

There is a legit. 1968 ram air gto in Harrison, NY. It is at this guys house sitting outside rotting. It has been there for a long time. I know it is legit because my dad sold it to the guy back in the 80's. Too bad because there are very few legit 68' ram air gto's out there.
