'69 Chevelle #s 375hp/4-sp, Great Docs

[scuncio]

Not a lot of '69 Chevelles out there with a build sheet, window sticker, dealer invoice, etc. Very interesting to see 'Gauges' misspelled on the build sheet....

While some may say the stance is too high, I like it, as wel as the yellow!

[Hotrodpaul]

Is it just me or do the broachmarks look manufactured?

They sure seem heavy. Deep enough to hold paint….curious what others think. Neat car if it all checks out

[scuncio]

Thought the picture wasn’t good enough to make a call on the broach marks, but I also found them a little unconventional looking.

Has anyone else seen “gauges” misspelled on a build sheet?

1969 Framingham build sheets are scarce and if found, most of the time it will only be the left 1/3 of the sheet. U14 will not be on that side, so not many to compare to. The misspelling is definitely suspect as are the broach marks but I can’t say for sure without further investigation.

I've never seen a Farmingham Build Sheet.....

[GotGrunt]

I found one in the archives, full sheet with U14 option. Same factory error :biggthumpup:

Where are we looking for the misspelling? I looked at all the info and couldn't see it...

Maybe you were thinking gages?

It’s spelled gauge, not guage.

SS 396 on the fenders would be a nice touch.....:blush:

Beautiful car.

Vin…..136379G358135
Pad…..19G358135 T0603JD

[NorCam]

Really nice car and I love the docs. I'm OK with the pad and would think it's all original myself. I recall seeing heavy broach marks before although maybe not that pronounced? I really like the car, but it does need the ride height corrected, and the emblems added to the fenders as stated above. I wonder where the money will end on this one.

Some days you can't see the forest for the trees!!! LOL

I looked at that 2-3 times and said to myself, Why do these guys think it should be spelled gage???

Nothing wrong with me eyes, just the computation...

THX

[olredalert]

----For want of a better word, a broachers "teeth" become worn over a period of time and tend to make these type of marks. The worn pieces would be replaced probably on somewhat of a regular interval.....Bill S

[Sean]

Anyone know who restored it with verification?

[wayoutz]

love the car pad stamping Horrible

[sixt9rsx33]

I agree. NTP in my view.

I found a 69 camaro 396/375 conv sold at Taylor Chevrolet N.Y they sold some muscle.

[mssl72]

Yeah, I noticed Taylor Chevrolet on the build sheet and window sticker. I used to get parts there back in the day. They did have some muscle come out of there.

My L78 Pace car was sold at Taylor Chevrolet. They actually sold 2 L78 Pace cars

The Taylor L78 Pace Cars came from Flemington, NJ (zone 15-665). Close to the track they were used as pace cars.

Thanks Steve that is right my mistake
