1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange

[Rixls6]

I mentioned this car, and it's problem, to the guys over at Nostalgic Autobody. They think the car should be able to be repaired with minimal paint work, but obviously would need to see it firsthand.

I also see no reason a skilled person with an eye towards preservation couldn't save the paint given what has been discussed.

Just bringing this one back to the top. Are there any updates for this car?

I did hear that they went to Arizona and picked up a 1969 shell with a good frame. I might see these guys this Wednesday. If I do I will report back.

You will not being seeing anyone from WI. Because after tonight`s loss to the Steelers a deep depression will set upon all &quot;Cheese Heads&quot;

I posted some junkyard pics in the rotting musclecars thread awhile back. The yard owner has a 69 SS, 72 72 with black stripes.

Nothing so far. When the weather gets a little better I'm hoping to take a couple of guys from this site to see Jerry's Chevelle. Then we can get some detailed pictures and updates.

Love the car! Hell no should it be repainted! Mount it on a new frame, go with a day two look for the wheels and tires... add some traction bars and certainly ... keep the graphics!!!

There are a lot of L78 Chevelles out there but how many with that look and some cool history!

Looking forward to seeing the progress on this car!!!
