Adam this big Chevy is CALLING YOU !!! do it!!

[Atuckman]

its big enough...looking for options at this stage.
guys - nothing else comes to mind?

[MosportGreen66]

Adam,

Any of the GM A-Bodies (Chevelle, GTO, GS, etc)? How about a '69 Camaro?

[Atuckman]

not wide enough unfort. most of the rear seats in conv ive measured so far are approx 48in.
looking for something closer to 52-54in.

ive reached out to guys about 55-57 chevys, 65 impalas, etc

think my best bet is to go to Mecum Indy with a tape measurer

Get Tibor to sell you his Power Tour Land Yacht...convertible...big and roomy...plenty of power under the hood..loaded with goodies.

And best of all it came from Nu-Yawk <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

I am sure my 'ol rust bucket is still around with another 30 pounds of bondo. This car was huge, slept in it many times, a rolling beach party.

[njsteve]

That mauve paint looks familiar. So did you buy the car we looked at, at Mecum?

[Atuckman]

Yes sir. Take it you didn't my message? Thank you again for your help. Congrats on selling your beauty too. Adam

[Bill Pritchard]

Perfect! Looks like some great memories in the making.

A big back seat could lead for the need of 4 car seats....

Rumor has it the Tuckman troup got a lesson from Dad in burn outs 101...

[enio45]

soooo, lets see the whole car!

[GaryC]

Got 18 people in my friends moms 65 4 door one halloween. We couldn't find a phone booth to try it in so we just picked the car. And then we drove it down the road with the bottom scraping. What a night that was.

[Atuckman]

trying to get used to the size. my 4 yr old calls it the &quot;boat&quot;

[m22mike]

Adam, that car is SWEEEEET <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif Great color.

I don't think anyone said as much, but the 65 factory color that looks like that was indeed called Evening Orchid. Gorgeous color, especially with a white interior. Wheels/tires/stance look perfect! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif

[Atuckman]

thanks guys. it is evening orchid...great eye. one year only color. think its similar/same as iris mist on the 65 GTO

[x Baldwin Motion]

have to say first 65 SS BB Evening Orchid I've ever seen, throw in the triple junior seats and it is ONE of ONE !!!

best of luck Adam!! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif
