I love that car and color combo. The pics are great. I would like to print out a few pics of it for my garage.

Hey Sam, How the heck did I miss this feature on your car?!?!?!? It's BEAUTIFUL!!!!! But then, you know I can't imagine a real car guy having one with a RED interior. (Black on red) Geeze, I'd "never" own one like that.................

Yeah Verne, I understand how you may have missed this. You know how these black/red cars blend in! Original owner's Dad influenced his color combo choice.

I'm in awe over this car! It has to be the most beautiful Chevelle I have ever seen!

Wayne has been able to get his hands on a few more photos and slides and forwarded these to me recently. This shot is the 1st day home from the dealership - Friday, 13 April 1969. Wayne was very happy and proud that day and took the time to chronicle his big day...





*** <u><font color="red">LICENSE PLATE FRAME </font> </u> ***

I have been contacting all the antique shops in the area of Rocky Mount VA. Altho, some say they see Wickline stuff (now closed) from time to time, I have not snatched a license plate frame yet. Let me know if anyone comes across one! Thanks

Here Wayne is lining up against a big red bowtie....




Most of the photos that Wayne just sent to me are quite faded. I am playing with bringing back the color and breaking in a new scanner. I have little experience in either department . Bear with me.
