I'd like to have it and get it restored

With all due respect Howard, that car should NEVER be restored. Worst case, the hood, deck lid and rear panel should be repainted in DuPont 99L and the rest of the car should be left as is. This car can still be a rolling encyclopedia for restorers for years to come,.................... in the right hands.

No offense taken. The damage has been done and can't be undone...painting the deck lid, hood and panel back solid black still require "new" paint. The benchmark claim is lost and it shouldn't be advertised as such but I'm not inclined to tell someone how to raise their kids or how to keep their cars. I don't agree with adding the stripes to this particular car but if I wanted to control what happened to it I should have bought it. It has sold at least 3 times in the last 3 years and is for sale again. Anybody who feels strongly about the car can get a bidder number and get at it.

And there you go...

BTW, I was in a media briefing...and who sat down next to me? Matt Stone...part of the on air talent at BJ. I casually mentioned that the black Benchmark Chevelle is no longer that...and is a pretty big story on the muscle car sites. He found it really interesting. He also said to email your opinions/concerns/shout outs...whatever....to [email protected] and who knows what might happen?
