I believe the fender is orig but it had paint work done on it. The pinstripes are redone on the fender.

That is one awesome find. Right color and a RS to boot. Body and supports look pretty good for sitting up in a field as well.

Congrats on the find.

I have no desire to restore or clean this thing. My goal it to trade it for a really nice first gen Z28. I was told it was sold new at Steakley ? Chevrolet of Dallas.

Many years ago I found a 1970 L78 Chevelle sold there.It was Zone 07,Dealer 698,and later became Dealer 700 in the late 90's.
Steakley Brothers Chevrolet (aka CHEVY-TOWN USA) was located on the NW corner of either 5411,or 6411 East Northwest Highway at Abrams in Dallas Tx. during mid 1960's.
The Steakleys were heavy into drag racing and also had a Chevy dealer in Waco,Tx. & Temple Tx. prior I learned.
The Steakleys sold out to the AutoNation dealership group a few years ago and it was then renamed Bankston Chevrolet.
Bankston has now closed up,but their buildings still remain there today I'm told it's an abandon furniture store.














..earlier family history.
