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!

[/ 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.

Awesome car, great paperwork, and a great vintage picture. Paul did you ever own a '67 L78 Chevelle that was owned by Skip Cain from New Orleans, La. ?

The only Chevelle L78 I've owned is my current '66 which is a 13,000 mile original Fremont car.

Charlie,
The actual color is called Aztec Bronze..... and yes, the 2nd and 3rd owners are from Woodland!! The original owner was in Roseville and the 4th owner was in Ripon (near Modesto). I bought it from him in the late 80's. I understand from Tim that your familiar with the car.
