Significant 1969 Muscle Cars

[Tenney]

Some great picks, for sure. Also ... Yenko 427 Nova. That cool Blue/White Bobcat Goat.

The single year only is going to squeeze the 69 SCJ out as well. Can we substitute the REAL contender the late 68.5 Mustang 428 CJ with 4.30 gears.

Some great suggestions!

Let me reel it in a little bit;

Dealer built Supercars, although obviously welcomed and wanted, would not be suitable for this particular display.

Factory built racers, like the S/S AMX would indeed fit the criteria.

The 68 1/2 would not, but I would LOVE to have one (or more) in the show. SportyWorty1: is this your car? If so, please consider joining us! I know there are already several California based cars heading in, so maybe we can fill a truck or two from California?

As a sidenote, the mentioned COPO 427 Chevelles have agreed to join us. Grady will be a part of our Vintage Certification program, and I believe Albert will be a part of the sYc Supercars Showcase.

I would really like to have an M-Code Runner represent the Plymouth camp, and a Hurst/Olds for the Oldsmobile.

For Buick, this is a really tough one. Anyone own or know of a Stage II equipped 69? How about an unusual Stage 1?

Ford/Mercury...hmmmm, let's see what surfaces. Any Cyclone Spoilers or Talledega's out there?

Anyway...keep the idea's coming and if YOU have a suitable car, please let me know.

As always, TC is welcome to bring in his incredible Yenko 427 Nova, but it would go in the sYc Showcase.

The owners of the Bobcat Goat have been invited, but I think it would be better suited to be next to a particular 64 Royal GTO!

RITA: time to spend some quality time with the sYc gang! If you can't get BillyBob to join us, come by yourself. We'll make sure you have a good time!

I think I can get the Boss 429 in on a technicality.

All production Boss 429's were produced during 1969. The first production car, KK1208-(finished in Raven Black) was started January 5,1969. The last '70 Boss 429 produced, KK2558 (finished in Grabber Orange) was started in late Dec 1969 and officially shipped from Kar Kraft on January 6, 1970.

Thus, I would argue that the Boss 429 experience was well focused on calendar year 1969. I submit they should be included in the show!

This has actually been a discussion among some of the MCACN, LLC Members.

So next question; do you own or know of a suitable Boss '9?

AND, just so everyone is clear, any nice Boss 429, whether a 1969 or 1970 model year is on the title, is more than welcome at the show! It does not have to be a part of this particular group.
