Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

that 33 mile car was sold on Ebay a few years back if I remember correctly. big bucks

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

Cool car, I studied it for quite a while at the Chicago auction when it sold. It was inside on carpet so you could get under it easily.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

Most impressive...loving the stripe-delete LS-6 'vert. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

The LS6 didn't come out of Concord, NC did it???

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

No..
That Fathom Blue LS-6 vert is the VOLO,Il. Auto Museum car.
Professionally restored since being featured in MM book.
It's not considered a stripe delete car either,because it was never optioned with them originally.
Base SS pckg. didn't get them unless ordered with working Cowl Ind. flapper hood,so you can't delete something it never had.

I was all over that then 28 mile LS-6 car here at Danas auction under the tent @ Boone Co. a few years ago.
Boy did it rain...got bid to 300K,then stopped.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

Did it meet reserve??? At 300k, I would hope so.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

Nope..it went back home.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

What is it worth?? I am not up on these Chevelles.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

Whatever someone is willing to pay to own it.
It's <u>one</u> of the few benchmark cars in the hobby,so it's difficult to compare it to another.
Dana always has interesting vehicles at his auctions.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

If I were looking for another car, Mecum is where I would go. Seems like a bunch of good guys.

You forgot to add a / in front of the word [image] at the very end of your text.
[image] goes in front,(pic text here),[/image] goes at the end.

-------Somewhere around 1982/83 I was on a buying trip to Louisville and got to ride in the 33 mile car from 12 miles up to 18. Other than the guy driving I think I may have been in it for more miles than any of the former owners. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif.........Bill S

I've seen this car change hands a couple of times over the years and met one of the first owners last year by chance. I believe it will take considerably more than 300K to own it, I was fortunate enough to see it a couple of years ago in Kissimmee and it's quite the time capsule.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

One of Dana's Chevelle's mentions its been diamond certified by Jeff Dotterer. What is diamond certification and how does that all work?

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

Chris White is one of the Diamond judges and is a memnber here. Best that he come on and explain it. It is based on a 5500 point system. No stone left uncovered. I have been through the process it is very thorough.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

Check this one out at Raceway Park circa 1972. Big John's car was a regular finalist in Super Stock Eliminator back then.

Did anyone go to the auction this weekend? Just wondering if any of these Chevelles sold.

Re: CHECK OUT THESE CHEVELLS AT MECUM
 

The auction isn't 'til May.
