very nice.. Wonder how and why it was equipped with a 12 bolt with a 350 2 barrel/powerglide combo?

The car has a 350 cu.in. FOUR BARREL,glide and that is why a 12 bolt. Heavy duty is four barrel 350cu.in. Nice car. *Paul

----Awhile back I had a 1969 Chevelle wagon in very similar condition with the same 350/12 bolt combo. What I find different about the two is that my wagon had a Turbo 350 rather than the slip-n-slide. I wonder why???
----This is a seriously cool survivor. Would love to have it. wonder where the bidding will end up......Bill S

About 15 years back I parted out a 1969 Chevelle 350 4 barrel, powerglide, 12 bolt car.

There's some things that are unusual. I try to put myself in the mindset of the person ordering the car at the time, and their purpose/logic. If they had an idea that they were going to pull something, and obviously they did with the boat hitch dent, I can see the 4bbl, and 12 bolt, but wonder why leaving the glide in as a weak link. Glides were stronger than we sometimes give them credit for, but seems odd that they went that far, and cheaped out on the trans.

The car in question isn't an SS so why does the air cleaner have a chrome lid? With the 1968 chrome covers present, I am going to assume that someone ordered the covers and the chrome lid early on and installed them over a plain black lid and standard orange covers.
