1969 Black/Red L89 Chevelle

[737Driver]

Is this car legit? I ask because, I am not familiar with it. I don't want to start a mudslinging but, it would be good to know about it before the auction. It's a great looking car!

Thanks for any info.

Sounds like it could be John Hill's which I beleive is going up for auction at the next Mecum. If so, I understand it is real.

That's John's .... Nice stance.

Of course, there's no way to know that it's the only black/red L89 built....

Thnx for the link, Dan. I knew I forgot something...

I can't speak for the owner but it has been judged at MCACN and has three partial build sheets.

Sexy car, he is selling a 57-57 M22 COPO Chevelle as well.

Doesn't a member here own a black/red L89 that was featured in several mags back in the 90s? Or was that a black/black car?

[Ngtflyr]

JM said it was the real deal before JH bought it at Barrett Jackson a couple years ago

[737Driver]

Would anyone want to offer a price estimate on the car, based on the current market?

Mark Hassett owns an 8800 mile Black/Black red D96 stripe L89 Chevelle. You are probably thinking of this one. I have just located the magazine it was featured in and will pick it up at MCACN.

Isn't this the same car that just sold for $68,200.00 @ Barrett-Jackson 2014 Scottsdale?

Most would agree that John &quot;stole&quot; the car at that price. It appears that he was at the right place at the right time.

Yep, that's the one.

If anyone has anything they would care to share on that L89, I would appreciate the info. I'm going to Indy so, I will have a chance to check it out. I would be interested to know about originality of the drivetrain.

[Charley Lillard]

I think that is Bll Wiemans old car that he bought back at Barrett ?

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

I forget the name of the owner before John who restored it?

Ryan

[GTO_DON]

So is it a real car? I remember when it sold last year and thought that was a steal.

[scuncio]

Not that anyone needs me to say this, but that was a hell of a deal for the price.

[Craig_Maiorana]

That is a stunning car ... the exact flavor I like my chevelles to be

The quality of the frame off is amazing. All of the &quot;little&quot; stuff that was wrong was fixed by local AZ guys <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif
