Congratulations! Nice Find!

Love that it has what looks to be a GM trailer hitch on it . I might have a correct factory shifter for you with the same patina .

It looks kind of scary under the hood its really not as bad as it looks, after fixing a dry rotted tank rubber line I was able to get the car running off the fuel tank. It really runs good for as long as its been sitting

Cool car , great paperwork.

I'm curious how GM handled the employees purchases? I see they still went through a dealer. Assume there were discounts?

Also what's different on the build sheet to non GM employees cars?

Looking good, never seen a non-stereo rear speaker in a convertible.

What a great Chevelle! Congratulations, she's a beauty.

Just saw this one for sale, good luck, already going for strong $$.

Patrick Glen Nichols was advertising it for sale on Facebooks' CHEVELLE OWNERS page for $50,000.00 a few weeks ago.
The majority of guys replied they thought the asking price was out of bounds & no where near it's true value.He had to keep defending himself saying he & his business partner had numerous offers near 50K and that it was worth more then that.This went on back & forth for days,until finally PGN announced it sold for $45,000.00 and no one there knew what they were talking about.
Now it's for sale on eBay and he deleted the entire Facebook topic with it's 100's of replies.
I see it's being sold from New Jersey,as the owner here is also from New Jersey,so maybe it didn't really sell as PGN said?
