I am the current owner of a 1969 Chevelle Deluxe 300 SS with L78
that was purchased new by a gentleman named Paul Whipkey who lived in Canton, Ohio. Paul drag raced the car from 69-71, and then put the car in storage. In November 1985 Paul sold the car to Joseph Orlando in Sandyville, Ohio. The car has a Bill Thomas sticker on the left rear window. Has anyone out there ever heard of Paul Whipkey or Joseph Orlando? I will try to attach a picture of the car and the decal. The car still has the original paint so it should still look like it would have in 69. I know this is a long shot, but I never cease to be amazed by the knowledge on this site
