Thanks for the info guys. Jim69Z please let me know if you come across anything.

We are still trying to locate owner history on the car. I've been able to find the owner (Jerry Korytko) back to 1980 when he bought it out of a Buffalo super swap paper. It was all original when he got it with a blown motor. He pulled the motor and had Jim Oddy build one for the car. Painted it from maroon to red and lettered it as "Bisquick", then went racing through 1984 or 1985. If anyone has anything on the this car I would really appreciate

I would love to find some plate frames or dealer emblems from Laks.

Hey Zach, have any photos to post of the '69 Biscayne? Would love to see them. One day, that is a car I'd like to restore/own.

Hey Zach, did you ever get the correct shifter for your car? The pics seem to show a Chevelle bench shifter.

Those are the pictures before we started restoring the car. I've now got the correct shifter, handle, boot, trim ring and bezel. Just need my car back from the body shop.....

Zach, that's a fantastic car, even pre-resto. Where were you able to find it? Those '69s are really hard to find.

Is that the correct color (pre-resto)?
