Re: 1968 Biscayne factory 427
Any build sheet or other docs besides the original owners statement to prove validity to the car being a true 425 horse car?

Re: 1968 Biscayne factory 427
I wish I had the docs but the short answer is no. If you know these cars a personal inspection would satisfy you. The second owner said the first owner showed him the protecto plate and invoice but wouldn't give it up because he wanted to buy the car back so they ended up in a Mexican standoff. The car came out of Minnesota maybe someone on here knows some history on this car. I bought the car in Maryland. I do have an old drag strip picture of it I will try to add it to this ad. The previous owner to me has tried to locate the original owner but had no luck in doing so. I haven't tried in the short time I have owned it.

Did the 2'nd owner buy the car in MN and bring it to MD? Any idea when that may've been also how he first connected w/ the O/O? Awesome car and best of luck w/ the sale! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

Larry Meyers owned the car and still holds the A/MP record at MN Dragways. Car was sold new out of Polar Chev.

Re: 1968 Biscayne factory 427
Yep that was what I have been told in fact the dragstrip picture I have has Larry Meyers written on the picture. I was told that the original owner worked at Polar Chevrolet and seen the car at a car show in Mn and walked up to the owner at that time and told him he bought it new. Naturally skeptical the owner at that time questioned him so he went home and returned with the protecto plate and invoice.

Helmut may want a Polar dealer tag if you have a second one.
