Man, all that for a choke?! Geesh!! That would a $200 option on todays cars!!!

BTW, really cool stuff, Clill. It still blows my mind that you stumbled onto all of those neat relics all in one spot. I bet you dated all the hot chicks in school, too! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The last of the "barn" Corvettes was traded away? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif

What?, they're all gone? Even the cool '57? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif



A moment of silence please....



Okay Charlie, now you gotta' post some pictures of the cars you traded for. I need to get my mind off of the "owl poop" '57. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

[Paul_S]

Huh http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif.... That '57 was cool, poop and all. Lets see a few pics of what they morphed into.

[Stuart Adams]

I had a feeling something was up!! I agree lets see some pics.

[Charley Lillard]

My Friend Mark Stielow got the red 63 Splitwindow for his Wife. The silver 67 was traded toward the blue 67 Coupe that was posted earlier. The 56 and the green 63 were both traded for a stock 55 Chevy convert, red and white but I can't post pics till I get the window to open up that asks me what I want to do with the pics when I plug my camera into the computer. My daughter thinks I checked the box that says "don't show me this again". So now I am back in idiot land.

[427TJ]

http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif

This thread was one of the great threads in all of car-forum land. But, all good things must come to an end. I'm curious to see a '55 rag worthy of the trade for the two Corvettes. Must be impressive.

Charlie: Get out there and score another group of bitchin' cars so we can do this all over again.

http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

[Charley Lillard]

It is not that impressive but neither were those two Corvettes. The 55 just looked like alot less work. Until I sell the 55 and the 67 coupe I won't have to figure out just how much this quest cost me....But it was a ton of fun...

[Paul_S]

Well, the '56 and '63 deserve a nice resto. Hopefully they'll get it. What happened to the yellow '67?

[Charley Lillard]

Yellow 67 went to a local couple that have a 66 suvivor for the husband. The yellow AC car is for the wife.

[JoeG]

The main thing is the're out of the barn and being de-pooped------Maybe you can get a couple of follow up pictures down the restoration road.----

[Mr70]

With 13940 views,and 15 pages,is this the record for a topic posted on sYc?..Just curious,

[Canucklehead]

De-pooped..................thats funny http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

[Steve_Hoog]

Charley

Thanks for sharing the pics of the cars as found, those are just as fun or better than polished up cars.

[indyjps]

are there any up to date pics

[Charley Lillard]

Wow...It has been almost 3 years. Time is flying.

[Vettefinderjim]

I remember when you found these. Do you still have them?
There is always a buyer for a good old Corvette.

Talked to 'Red Alert' today. We are getting together for Auction Circus Week in Arizona in Mid January. Want join us for lunch one day and we visit about these and the other treasures still hiding in your neighborhood......like the 67 AC 427 yellow convert

[Charley Lillard]

All have gone to new homes. It was sad to see a dealer paint the orig paint silver 67 in order to doll it up to sell. The yellow 67 is still with the friends I sold it to.

A friend owns the yellow 67 with white interior 390 horse car that is probably the one you are thinking of. There is also a 65 FI car with orig owner but TimG has dibbs if it ever gets free.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

What happened to the silver/blue '63 SWC? I think it was red with funky K/H wheels when found (?) That was my fav.
