Scant info at this point, but sounded interesting to me. A friend down the street from me called last night about this car. He tells me that this is a documented Monaco Orange (or would they call it HO?) 427 w/4speed. Supposedly the only one. I 'spect this is a known car and want to mention it here to see if anyone is interested in it. Not 100% sure it is for sale, but it appears to be. Here are a few shots. I have asked for more pix and any docs too. Don't think the original motor is around, but the heads and some other parts are. Sorry for minimal info, but wanted to see if there is any interest. I absolutely have NO dog in this fight and did not list it in "for sale" as am not sure of its status. Enjoy...... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

If an orig. 427 car I wonder if it was a L72? .
The color on thoses big steelies w/ dog-dishers looks great! .

This car was on eBay about 2 years ago.

I wonder what makes it 1 of 1 if Chevrolet didn't keep records of this?

bhahahaha!

427 land yacht is cool. But that color and those matching steelies make it look like a floating joke.

I'd re-do the steelies in proper silver. have that car done in black.

Then Id make the motor appear 100% stock, but producing about 550HP and torque. That would be worth cruising.

The stance isnt jsut right either. Needs more rubber out back. at least a tall 275/295 to fill it out.

sorry Bruce, didnt mean to BS. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif
Great car, love the color. It DOES have NY plates and resemble official village vehicles of that era. Doubt they were four speeds though.
