I watched that on-line Dan, Was it as nice as the price would indicate?

What can you tell me about the Orange 69 Velle L78 ragger that went for big dollars as well?

Thanks pal.

117 sounds like market or a bit low if it is well sorted and everything purported.

WOW, $207.5K is some crazy money for a 66 L79 Nova SS! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]

I would say that $117K is all the money and then some for a 69 L78 Chevelle convert with a &quot;Date code period correct&quot; engine.
