Love this car, remember it selling on Ebay about 15 years ago unrestored, wearing oxidized orange paint.

And a real stripe delete in Monaco Orange.

And at every cruise-in or car show there would be "experts" telling you it is the "wrong color" and should have stripes.

I would gladly put up with those idiots!

Did Nick Lewis own this car and then sold it to someone in the north?

[Mr70]

Yes,Nick owned the car,and then sold it to Ken in Two Rivers Wisco. back in 2004.
It has a CE service engine block,installed by Guaranty Chevrolet on April 3rd,1970.
No factory Tach/gauges.

That is what I thought he had offered to sell it to me at that time at a really fair price back then.

[Mr70]

Lowered his BIN price,so someone hit it and just ended the auction..

Damn, that was wlll bought. I believe that car was bid to $85k around 10 years ago and the seller decided to hold out for more. Not sure it was the same seller, but wow.

[Mr70]

Once,it was bid up to 90K @ auction,but refused as seller wanted 150K back then....same seller.
