Charlie Lillard seen on Speedvision
 
Last night (Tuesday) I saw Charlie on the main stage checking out a 69 L78 Hugger Orange Camaro.

Charlie I think you were just trying to get on TV...I think I saw him with a sign that reads https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...elairSucks.gif

Did anyone else see him?

Dan.

Just to clarify.....was that the Hugger Orange Canadian L-78 that sold in the High $70's. One of the announcers was trying to make point how Right Fender SS emblems were misaligned????. Someone please write MORE about this car that Denis bought. Catalog picture showed w/o smog???
Just interested to hear and see quality of resto, etc etc

Hi Chuck. Selling price was $69.5K. We don't need no steenking smog in Canada. Seriously, though, I don't know if it would've been standard equipment on a car sold new in Alberta. The factory block heater is still there though!

Later in the evening as I was checking out the car back under the outside tents and starting to feel buyer's regret, the seller showed up. Then out of nowhere, the guy who found and restored the car in the 80's (Les Long) shows up!

Car was sold new in Alberta, has GM of Canada docs, was found in Ontario. Original Hugger Orange car, was flat black when found. Drivetrain is the "born with" drivetrain, fenders and quarters were replaced with GM pieces. Only changes were the addition of a cowl hood and no hole in the fender for the AM radio antenna.

40K mile Hugger Orange white interior L78/TH400 car, rust-free, bondo-free, straight, clean, fires up instantly and sounds great!

Canadian smog laws closely followed those of the US. The '69 and '70 L78 cars would have had the AIR pump.
