What color is that? Looks great with the steel wheels - I think we just found out the #1 car in the '68-'72 Stock-Restored class at the NNN show!

The color is Cordovan Maroon, Code N. The color kind of grows on you.Looking foward to the NNN show! Thanks for all the nice comments. My friend George Steele of GS Restorations did the resto on the car, I wish I had the talent. I spent most of the time trying to find parts and info !

We are very excited about the Chevelle and plan on starting on it soon!

Nice job Jeff,
was the second owner from the Indy area?
did you ever find out who the selling dealer was?

Selling dealer was Don Marshall Chevy, Upland IN. The early owners were from Fairmount, Gas City area.

I think Big Block Nova's are terrific and yours is magnificent, thanks for the pictures and story.

Fantastic Jeff!

I've met and talked with Jeff a number of times myself, and have seen quite a few of his restorations. This guy knows what he's doing! '68s are a tough year because of all the one-year-only pieces but you've done a Great Job. Bench seat, column shift, low trim options, sinister color combo.................. WOW!

As Rob once said,................

and I'd give it three if I had 'em.
