Lattof is celebrating it's 70th year in business this year. Alan Lattof is the 3rd generation to run the family business.In todays world 70 years in one family is unheard of. A lot of the staff there have muscle cars and love the hobby. Alan has the staff host a annual charity car show every summer in the lot, averages about a 100 cars.The apartment complex your folks lived is still in Lattof's backyard.

i would very much like to know when they have that show. my parents only had this car for about a year when he saw a 69 427/450hp car at jack douglass that my dad had to have. i want to try and find the current owner of the 68 car if its still around.

[jeff morocco]

after receiving the 68 ss , lattof sent this paper. dont have the magazine but i bet someone does http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

I have all issues from 1966-1973.
It really was ahead of it's time.

mr 70.....what was in it ? stuff on just chevelles or all chevy stuff ?

[Mr70]

It's everything.
Each issue talks about the Chevrolet vehicles,usually what's new that particular year/month.
Also features ads for Parts & Accessories.
They also have articles/pictures about world news,celebrities and visit foreign places too.It could be compared to a National Geographic or LIFE magazine in that sense.
The Photograhers in "Friends" were some of the best at that time.Many were getting their feet wet,and are more well know in their own right today.
It's all done very well and intellectually.

[jeff morocco]

was it hard to find those magazines ? can they be found at swap meets or ebay ? ive never seen one before . to quote other members on this site "CAN I HAVE IT ". J/K

[Mr70]

Depending on the years desired,they're usually not that hard to find.
There are curently over 200 of them on Ebay right now.
