This is like the rumour started by a magazine from the 80's that stated there were 1971 Chevelle SS454 with LS6 motors.
Don't believe everything you read [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] Hearsay vs. real fact with proof is what proves what is real and what is a myth.

This dealer offers a nice visual of what could have been........
http://www.collectormotors.com/1967chvl427.htm I owned the stock version of this car for a number of years, even with the bench seat, auto on the column, and ext. color.

Gentle Ben Thread #15443 - 06/17/02 08:53 AM Re: 66 Chevelle 396/375 conv lesson needed [Re: Mr70] FESTIVAL78 member Registered: 04/26/02 Posts: 148 Loc: Arlington MA USA Hi all. The news isn't all bad (I guess). The car has gotten considerably worse. It is very wet and moldy. I'll give you guys the numbers and we'll see whats what. trim; 01B 185 66 13867 116 731 F2 the vin: 138676B136040. Here's what I saw.. Intake and top of motor stolen. no vin on pad # is T06231VR. The car is under a tree with lots of wet leaves and mud. I can't sneak out of work and then show back up dressed in mud & scum, therefore no tranny or rear #'s (yet). The convertible top is power, the car was blue but is now silver. It has a four speed. Black interior. Does have rollbar, Bolted to floor with one bar rendering the passenger seat useless. The odometer shows 19634 but the car has rot (sitting outside rot more than driving rot. lower fenders lower doors blown through. The frame and under are too nice for big road miles. The straight axle has drums (of course) and spiral shocks. The name of the car (rear quarters) is Gentle Ben. the dash is painted with " driven by Glen Lorenzen" there are two 1/4 window stickers. One I cannot make out and the other says "1969 AHRA summernationals new york national speedway". It is not reasonable to consider that this car was street driven. The lower quarter says " artwork by Gill" Maybe someone knows of this car. Also I checked ebay for pricing. Not too high. Who's got suggestions on money to be offered. I think maybe this car should stay a nostalgia drag car? First it's got to get inside! Just got my camera back..will sneak over and try to post a picture. If anyone is hugely interested I'll email you one real quick as I do know how to do that at least!

Im trying to obtain it. That was my fathers car and I have spent the better part of my childhood in the passenger seat. I hope it is still round.
