Yes, I'm putting it up for sale......... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

1968 Chevrolet Biscayne
427 - L72 (non-numbers matching "512" block)
4 spd - Original M21, with a T10 in it right now
4.56 posi rear -- includes correct, properly coded *DP* axle to designate 4.88 posi, as it was equipped originally.

12,000 original miles. Was used as a race car since day one, but never cut up. All original black interior, approximately 60% original Butternut yellow paint. And the only reason it isn't all original paint is because the lettering on the car "ghosted" the sides when it was taken off. Contact with original owner to verify authenticity. Anyone that knows or has seen this car can soundly say that this is one of the best L72 Biscaynes out there. I will answer any and all intimate questions about the car via phone or email. Hard to put everything in an ad. Sometimes it's easier to convey via phone, etc. I can deliver for an additional, negotiated price.

$65,000 OBO

Is there and papers that document it being a L72?

Casey Marks
02-28-2008, 07:46 PM
Unfortunately, no documentation. Original owner was involved in an ugly divorce in the early 70's and all of that stuff went bye-bye. He is still alive and I talk with him frequently. Although there is no "official" docs, the sum of the original L-72 parts that are on the car leave no question that it is a legit 425HP car. Give me a call and I can talk in further detail.

This was a well known car in the 70's thru the 90's in the Bloomington and Burnsville, MN area as well as on the track.

Casey- I know its not my spot to say anything... but I think you're going to be kicking yourself for not holding out. The market maybe be soft(er), but its not that soft. You're basically giving away that super rare big car... Just my humble opinion.
