No one else including my banker felt the same as me, but I went on the hunt anyway. I was then a sophmore at Ohio U. For a couple of weeks I travelled all over southern Ohio to different Chevy dealers and one of them was Langs as I had heard they were a performance dealer, and they definetly were. Of course, I never managed to buy a 67 then, but I did see my first 396/375 67 Camaro. It was white with a black gut and had both headers and an extra complete 4:56 gearset in the trunk (right from the factory). Not one other option! Id love to know where that one went. That's when I figured they were right about Langs being a performance dealer. Well,,,that and about 15 Corvettes and other assorted Chevy muscle everywhere. Great, great dealership!!!!!!!!!.........Bill S </div></div>
Cool story Bill... Was it common for guys your age to be hunting new Corvettes? I must have been focusing my attention at the wrong things when I was younger.LOL </div></div> Me as a college junior? ..I had just bought my first of atleast 20 VWs!!! 200 bucks for a 69 beetle !! Not quite a Vette!! I was on financial aid..Are you kidding ?? but because of that passion, I still own my first Supercar..my Grandma's 1975 Super Beetle that she bought new!!! hahaha |

VW's were cool... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]...Learned to drive on a 1960, after I would brown nose the old man by cleaning the car up he would let me drive it in the empty lot next to our house. Man was I cool.

![]() Besides paper copies of anything, I've always hoped that microfilm records would eventually be found for US cars like what the Canadian built or delivered info is gleaned from. What made me more hopeful is Dave M. shared some GM internal Z16 info once which looked much like the Canadian microfilm, so is it known absolutely yes/no if GM ever made microfilm records for US delivered cars...regardless of whether any is known existing today or not? What does the PHS group use to provide their service, old paperwork or microfilm? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

Back in 86-87 I spoke to a guy that someone told me to call about this supposed Judge I bought. IIRC it may have been Tommy Shaw?, I THINK he was a mag editor back then. He told me to contact Pontiac Public Relations with the VIN and just a few weeks later I got a microfish copy of the build sheet confirming it was a Judge. It was printed out on what looked like the same paper on a roll that was used on the old fax machines and just a tad fuzzy but very readable. This was before PHS I believe. I wonder if that is where PHS got their documents.
