I purchased an L78 rallye green chevelle, on july 19,1969
in pittsburgh, pa black vinvyl top, and buckets, no console,
rear antenna, muncie rock crusher, $4,051.00 sticker. I sold the car in 1972, have tried in vain to relocate. My friend Tony bought a 1969 rallye green 325 hp convertible.

Hello Sam,
bought from AZ chevrolet, frankstown road penn hills,pa.
It was about a 9 week wait from order time to delivery.
the paint was superb. I got a speeding ticket the next night! I was 18 when I got the car. I wanted to buy a Yenko,
but my Dad would not sign for me as Yenko was in cannonsburg,
we lived in Monroeville, PA at the time. Then you had to be
21 to buy a car. The car had manual steering, no gauges, had the darkest tinted windows. the second week I had the car, we put on hooker headers, air shocks, dixco? tach, and
SW guages. originally had a 3:55 12 bolt... in 1970 I went
to 4:56 and eventually to 4:88... the 396 spun a bearing
and I installed an L88 short block. raced at keystone
raceway park. Those were the days.

I know of a 69 SS 396 Chevelle for sale locally...also a -B Ralley Green car, with a black top and side stripe. Original 4 speed car with decent option list. Factory tach + gauges, tilt column, N34 wheel, original bucket seat console car (although it was scrapped when the Hurst shifter was added) with speedminder and rear defrost. NOM, and no paperwork, currently has a rebuilt 454 between the fenders. It can be had at a reasonable but not giveaway price. If anyone is interested, shoot me an e-mail at [email protected] and we can discuss. This car restored properly with Magnum 500s, redlines, and a proper stance would rock.
