Is this Gene Crump tag plate on eBoy the same dealer your friend's post car is from Ryan?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Gene-Cru...LMAAOSwHQ9WZco3 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Gene-Crump-Chevrolet-Sheffield-Alabama-AL-Ala-Car-Tag-No-1-Dealer-/181966422154?hash=item2a5e0b408a:g:4LMAAOSwHQ9WZco 3)
Yes, Ron Shafer Chevrolet was in Anniston and I have a few more ads from there I'll post later.
Again, anyone know anything of the '69 427 'Velle in the previously posted Ron Shafer Chevrolet ad?

Pete,
It would be very interesting if you could turn up an ad from Page Bros Motor Co. in Russelville, KY from the May/June '63 time frame. You might find an ad something like this.

Here's two more '69 Yenko Nova ads as posted in the Nova thread plus two Sept/68 Yenko ads w/ what appears to be 15 x '68 Copo 9737 cars!
Note color breakdown and HD options also 1-1/16" Frt. Sway bar plus 140 Speedo...one car w/ L78 gone and L35 transplant?
Next ad is a week later and down to 5 x "HiPo" '68's left...after Yenko Sales and Dealer Trades to Kenny Ross etc?

What color was the '68 you mentioned years ago about parting out in the 80's Steve?
Did it have the MM Trim Tag and do any of the '68 9737 cars in the above ads seem a possible match?

It was a KK Tripoli Turquoise coupe, w/ a repaint in Butternut Yellow, bought & ended in flat black primer...396/4 speed. It had a MM tag on it. I want to say it was bought in the Youngstown Oh area? A good friend of mine had it and sold it and got it back in pieces. I got it from him and gave the shell to local Camaro collector-friend. Very little left on it. It was a early car with Astro Vent etchings on the door glass, non tinted glass,and style trim. Beast of a car....I know the guy I got it from still has the tags. Sadly, I'm not sure what frame of mind he's in today....I'm sure I know right where they are.
BTW, it was not a 9737 car..std 120 speedo, and sway bar. We were well aware it was different and never could understand why it had that tag.

Interesting on the Myerstown Auto Deuce - I thought I knew exactly which car that was, until I saw the A/T part..... The Fathom Blue 'Snoopy' Deuce was def a 4speed, so it wasn't the Deuce I was thinking of. Might have to go on a hunt!!

On the Deuce Ad from Jeff City, MO; I believe this ad refers to a Citrus Green Deuce sold new at Riley Chev in Jefferson City, MO. The original owner sold it around this time and then tracked it down many years later and bought it back! The other 2 Riley Deuces were totalled, the orange one was titled once in '70, the blue one was never titled....

Do a search under the Minneapolis Star and Tribune from back in the 70's some time if you are bored. Back in the mid 70's there were TONS of high performance cars for sale in every Sunday's paper. I used to read it just for the dreams of owning one of them. Several Yenkos were listed over time.

I tried for Minneapolis ads Rick, specifically the MS&T but sorry and no luck.
Digging deeper, it appears the Minneapolis papers have been scanned by NewspaperArchives which are a different group than the Newspapers.com folks I'm riding with although I may try them on next after this subscription ends.
On w/ the show, here's a few ads to go along w/ L78 week here @ Yenko.net!

Cool update on Ken Hemphill Mark and I'll try searching his name later.

Although some claim otherwise, from what I've ever understood, there were no factory built L78 Acadians/Beaumonts.

For the Philadelphia area, the Penske and Lafferty dealers are pretty well known but the Degnan ad is new one for me - likely a dealer transfer from Penske who I think got 4-5 of 'em. Similar, is the Hauser Chev ZL1 that was previously thought to be a Gibb sold car.

And thanks a TON Pete for digging up this old Nankivell ad. The car mentioned as "The '69 500-Pace Car, on Display and For Sale at Nankivell's" is none other than my actual Pacecar 124679N608347. Nankivell wouldn't actually sell this car until mid-November (ownership transferred from Chevrolet to Nankivell on Nov 13th, and then sold on Nov 17th). So the car must have been on display at Nankivell's dealership for several months while still technically being owned by Chevrolet.
Thanks Pete!

One of Sabatines cars was a XL1- the other was Yenko- which is still out of the Washington, NJ area owned by a guy it ran on the road called the leaping lizard. Lenovo Sabatines speed shop prepped my 1970 L-78 Cheverly for me in his shop which I ran at Varga and Island speedway for a year. Watched Len go head to head in final round at Island with both of his cars with someone else driving the Yenko- and the XL1-won. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif
I noticed that Pace Car add, that's very interesting. I wish there were some pictures from the dealership.
I love the pace cars.......

I like the "Cameros" Penske was offering. Penske had quite a bit of advertising dollars spent on marketing that green ZL-1. Really surprised that the dealers that were selling them (ZL-1s) referred to them as such. Sure, we all know what they are today, but did the hot rodders and racers of the day know that nomenclature? After all, it wasn't displayed on the car like a Z/28.

I was replacing a window in my basement in my 100 year old house today, and found remnants of a newspaper that looked to be from the early 60s. The section I could read was car ads and the two that I could make out, one was for a 61 Buick LeSabre convertible and the other one was for to 1959 Cadillac Coupe DeVille. I don't think either had a price

The same cars are often advertised for multiple days so I'll look for more ads in case color noted also try searching the phone # too.
Here's a '68 'Velle w/ ZL-1 from a few pages back, I think there was a '66 or '67 too but may be confusing it w/ one of the L89's?

Anyone know any of these cars?

Very interesting SS427 ad. I have to say I have never heard of that car or anything similar to it. Would be interesting to hear the story.

Yep, strange one for sure but some Chicagoans may remember it, especially if it appeared at any Auto Shows back then?
Here's the '67 'Velle I was referring to a few posts back, the amazing for the day GM option nomenclature is all to identify the alloy heads, not block?

Thanks again for the info, cool you have a connection to the car!
Below pic is a Gordon Wilson delivered '66 L72 'Vette, built as a race car from new.

PRETTY sure this is one of the "Special" 1966 L72 M22 Big Brake cars (some referred to the iron headed L88's) Didn't Marty Shorr report on them back in 66?

----M22 Corvettes were rare enough in 66 (15 built), and J56 brakes a little less so (382), but the stunner in 66 was that 6 (I am almost sure of that figure) L88 Corvettes were built and released by Chevrolet in 66. None were for public consumption but at least 2 still exist and are beautifully restored. There were also 65 Corvettes built with 396 and M22s, but I only know of one for sure and it is unrestored.......Bill S

---- Lee,,, You have found the two that I referenced. The red 66 belongs to Scott Freese (AKA the Iceman). My 66 was next to Scotts at MCACN last year. Great guy and good friend. Blue Penske 66 belongs to Kevin McKay and is absolutely stupendous!!!.......Bill S

This doesn't 100% go along with the thread but still cool either way. A co-worker brought this in as he was going through some stuff. It was a reprint of an article from the Nashville Banner from April of 67 about the 4th Annual Auto Show here in Nashville.

I was almost sick when I read that one, ugh. </div></div>
Holy crap Pete, that's my car! I mean it must be, mine is the only one that was sold new and lived its life in Phoenix, and the mileage matches as well. I had no idea this classified ad ever existed, this is awesome! According to my old titles this timing also roughly lines up with a change of ownership. Wonder if the ph# still works...
Thanks!!!

Continuing on, I just did a search on that ph#, and it looks like the car was advertised almost exactly one year earlier in the same newspaper. Pete, is it possible you can lookup this ph# from the April 5, 1974 issue of the Arizona Republic? I can't see the ad itself, but the summary of the OCR scan says it had "13,000 total miles" at that point. If you can't get the ad no sweat, what you've posted already is tremendously cool.
Thanks!

Wade, PM me, I've found the guy that posted the Arizona Republic ad for your 71 Hemi Cuda Vert

Pete, fantastic thread. Thanks for all the research. Incredible stuff. I was wondering if you could post the picture of the 1967 Camaro Cherokee that appears on page 35 in the April 4, 1967 edition of The News Journal from Wilmington, Delaware. I am putting together a thread on Camaros that appeared at major auto shows back when they were new and would love to include this picture. Thanks.
Scott
