My first recollection of this car was in 2005 at the Atlantic City Auction.

Then in 2005 it parked beside me at the Maryland Chevelle Show (pic attached). My memory tells me the car was gorgeous, but the owner at that time turned me the wrong way. I tried to take up several general car guy conversations with him and received very little pleasantness in return (kind of snobbish?).

Then the car went to California I guess. Been on Ebay many times in recent years. I have pictures from the March/08 Ebay listing (Redwood City, CA). Starting bid at that time was $275,000. By the end it did not meet reserve.

I can't speak for authenticity of it, but it was purdy when I saw it live.

Isn't this the same Dusk blue 1969 L-89 chevelle convt. we saw go across the block at Dana's spring classic auction @ Boone co. fairgrounds here in 2005-6?
I remember that one was nice,but not varified to have the born with engine & had the engine compt. graffiti all over it & sat way too high.The seller at the time was younger guy from Iowa he said,and wanted 300+K in the staging lane he told us that friday afternoon.Once it hit 250K on the block,he dropped his reserve and it sold for near 280K.It was the same year/auction that RedAlert & the 26 mile survivor 1970 Chevelle were there,under the tents at spring Belvedere when it downpoured for awhile.

Isn't this it again?...Lot#S129 sold for $160K @ May 2009 Mecum..VIN #136679B317045

It is a beautiful car. Lots of eye appeal. It appears to ride high in the air, but, maybe that's just the camera.
