Well, my wanted ad in the Holland, MI Craigslist paid off!

I got a call from a couple guys.
One guy is probably a good lead for parts and info on other cars, as he has been messing around with Chevelles for quite awhile.
The second call I got was from Russ Jacobs, who did own this car in 1983.
He remembers buying it in Muskegon, MI
It had SS wheels on it when he bought it, but got a free set of wheels from his work, so that's what you see in this picture. It also looks white, but actually is silver.

Awesome, check out that custom side stripe....perhaps the black stripe was already there and the added the Blue stripe over it with the custom swirl at the rear....I wonder if it went up unto the trunk?

I'll ask him if the stripe went over the top of the rear quarter.

See the yellow Accel Supercoil barely sticking up in the underhood area?
The holes are still in the firewall where it had been.

Couple more pics.
Previous owner says these are from the fall of `83 at Grandville Mall car show.
