Looking for an unknown triple white 70 Chevelle LS6 convertible

This car was in Clarksville TN in the early 80's.Console auto and had Tru Spoke rims. I had seen it in Hot Rod magazine in the readers rides section, then a few months later I saw it in person. Probably between 1982-1986.

Does anybody have a Hot Rod magazine collection from those years that they can look through? Or is anybody here friends with Chuck Hanson? I'm sure he would know of the car.

I will never forget when I saw that car. I was riding with my evil bitch stepmother an I told her "You have to stop right now" She did.

I sent Chuck a text and he said doesn't remember the car Jimmy. Hope you end up tracking it down, I'd love to hear more about it.

I believe it appeared in Muscle Cars magazine in the late 1980s, but could be wrong. For sure I remember a triple white car. I remember a guy who was like a manager for some Country artists, and he had a large Chevy collection, but I can't say for sure he was the owner at the time I saw it in print--could be conflating two articles.

I believe that was CK Spurlock? He had a lot of rare muscle cars back in the 80's but I don't remember him having a white LS6 convertible. I pitched all my Hot Rod magazines years ago when they tried making me take it the first time MCR went under but I still have every issue of Muscle Cars. I'll try looking through them over weekend and see if I can find anything.

Below is a cheap screen shot of the listing or click here...

I'm PMing you a contact from Clarksville. I've purchased Chevelle parts from him many years ago. Not sure if the number is good or if he is even still around. He was from Clarksville and was a Chevelle guy. If it was there he should know about it.
Also PGN is from Clarksville. I would think he should have knowledge of this car as well. He and his brothers are all Chevelle guys.
