For what it is worth, I just picked up Mark's Mitchell's Turbo 400 from TSI Transmissions in Burnsville, MN after undergoing a total rebuild. I spoke to the owner, Duane about my restorations and his cars. Besides the fact that he currently owns a mint Cortez Silver 69 L78 Nova and talked to a Green Yenko Deuce owner from Bloomington (Earl
) said he was tall and friendly, at the Nova Nationals a couple of years ago, he also mentioned he owned a Black 69 L78 300 Deluxe Chevelle back in the 80's. I mentioned the fact that only three were known to exist and he was curious if his one one of those three. ![]()

Rick,
The next time you happen to speak to the guy that use to own a Black 1969 L78 300 Deluxe...I`m assuming it was a Post Sedan, you did not mention. If you can obtain a VIN of his former car, I can verify if one of the 2 Black L78`s was truly his car. I know where they currently reside and the current owners. Dan.

Wow, very nice car. But can somebody pontificate for the purpose of discussion on what a car is worth (other than the standard answer of
" it's worth what someone is willing to pay for it"). Here you have what looks to be very nice car that does not have the original motor, trans and who knows what else. How does one come up with 65K price and what would this car sell for if it did have the born with components. I'm not bashing. I just want to know..... ![]() |

Kyle,
Welcome to sYc. How does one come up with 65K price and what would this car sell for if it did have the born with components. I'm not bashing. I just want to know..... To answer your question... Rarity. I have been following these 69 300 Deluxe Post Sedans for a long long time...and have traveled the country in search of real SS cars. To date (5/10/08) I currently only have 23 real SS 1969 300 Deluxe Post Sedans in my data base. The car is what it is....a non original engine and trans. But try finding another one. Dan.
