Were you just driving down a country road and saw a little sign that said old Chevy for sale (you know the rest of the folklore)? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif Cool car! Good luck with the sale.

I woke up one morning and it was parked outside my house. Just kidding. The neutral safety switch went out on this guy 6 years ago and he didn't want to pay the $200. to get it fixed so the car wouldn't start. 4 years ago he got in touch with me and wanted to sell and then changed his mind. Now this next part is critical so take notes, ALWAYS take your name and number and place it in the car. Leave him with the old "if you ever decide to sell" and the rest is history. If you don't leave it in the car it will get tossed.
I bypassed the switch, changed the oil and lit it off and went for a drive. No smoke, runs strong. 39k on the odometer. Might be real. New switch is in car now.

You mean 'Danny' http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif or Amanda? Don't know, but I've got 3 little ones, and only Benjamin has a car so far.... I gotta get moving on acquiring 2 more - now that the mini-van thing is outta the way.

Hey Allen, a '69 silver is cool too - heck, just about any year vette in silver looks cool! But this '66 rocks, I love the CA emission stuff too.... how weird is that? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

I'll update my info!!! Sorry Daniel. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif

Cool car. How is the body and Frame?

Thanks
Frame is Calif, no rust or issues. The piece between the headlights looks like it was changed, bumped into the garage I think. Also it lost a tire tread on the drivers front and took a small piece from the turn signal corner and a small piece from in front of the rocker. Paint is original up to the nose where he had it blended a long time ago in the front when they fixed the nose. I think everything works, even the backup lights.

do you have a better picture of the nose? I can not tell if the glass is broken or the paint is cracking

Paint is coming up where body was repaired.
