Re: [Chevelle-List] Oh great and all knowing chevelle list...
Yep, definately have a third party go and check it out. I was gonna have Larry (Z16) go look at a 69 Dodge Charger out where he lives in Oregon for me. The guy never got back to me so that fell through. Too bad, i was gonna fly all the way out there had it been in good enough shape. Also, I almost drove out to Minnesota to look at another 69 Charger. Its pretty funny actaully, I almost went fro NJ to Oregon, or NJ to Minnesota, then I found one 10 miels away from my house. Plus it came with tons of new parts, and a 68 parts car. Tom

Then I found out the car wasn't a real SS and that they fake 'em all the time.

Since, I've seen lesser equipped Elky's of that year sell for $1-2.5k more. I am very happy with mine even though it's not one of the "golden" years...I've only put about $2k into getting the air redone and replacing a few things like the windshield and power steering pump, etc. .

RE: [Chevelle-List] Oh great and all knowing chevelle list...
That doesn't sound too badwill she be open to you spending money on it once you get it?She's hoping for a my daily driver to be driveable. She's seen me stress over my current car and I think she wants me to have a car that needs less work. (It's hard to restore a car that you have to rely on for transportation every day) I wouldn't take less than $4500 for it. Are we talking about the same car? I've compared 69's on the net to mine and the $4500 Elkys seem to be in better shape then mine. THX JM

Title: RE: [Chevelle-List] Oh great and all knowing chevelle list... I have checked Ebay and autotrader.com. I could find what I wanted for 7-9k, all I want is a nice malibu. However it is the internet and you never know what your going to get. Like you said I know what's wrong with the one i've got. The last thing I want is to spend that much on a 67 with a bent frame. And if that is going to happen it would happen to me.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Oh great and all knowing chevelle list...
The idea of moving prompts the idea of selling my 1969 El Camino. The wife has been very supportive in my project, however she doesn't like the idea of spending over its resale value. Which I would go over if I continued the project. I think every project car would qualify for that honor To convince me that I should sell the El Camino, she has agreed to let me get a loan for up to $9K to buy my dream car (1967 Chevelle), once we get to Columbus. That doesn't sound too badwill she be open to you spending money on it once you get it? 1). Do I sell my Elky, give into the urge of a 67 Chevelle and take a large loss on what I've put into the Elky ($5500 total spent)? I'd probably go for the dream car if I were you...that's what I set out to do when I found the '78it was my second choice, but my first was a '70-72 and they were way out of the price range I set. 1b). If I did sell it how much would I be able to get? 1969 El Camino Malibu Super cold A/C New Suspension all around (PST kit(polygraphite)/gas-a-just/springs) New brakes all around (Drums) Brand New Michelin tires all around New Holley 750 carb W/Holley Contender intake Rebuilt rear axle new split bench seat (see www.angelfire.com/retro/project-69) I wouldn't take less than $4500 for it. Also if anyone has any info about Columbus Ohio I'd sure be interested in knowing what it's like up there. Very nice people there I hear, but no oneand I mean no onedrives over any posted speed limit at any time (I got this second hand from two different sources, I've never been there). Kelly C.
