That's one of the badassest (is that a word? ) vintage pics I've ever seen... I'm not a vette guy, but that is a great car!

I never fail to be amazed by the cars that are brought to light on this site

Sure would have been neat to see it in its unrestored state though.

Wow... that is one hell of a vintage shot!
Strong, strong paper with history to back it up...
I am in awe.

This is an amazing vehicle. I had the pleasure of judging it at the NCRS National Convention in San Antonio. I also examined it at the home of the original owner. It is the real deal, no doubt about it original engine the car was born with and a great history. This is one of the last L88s ever built. Awesome!

Bruce is out of town and hasn't seen the feature yet. Paul is the other owner and has some amazing cars in his collection including another '69 L88. Paul, chime in here.

[/ QUOTE ] Mark, I remember dicussing the car with you in 01/04. I really enjoyed meeting with the original owner and looking through all the paperwork and seeing his other cars! I am glad that the car went to a good home and look forward to seeing it again in November.
