Looking for info on 1967 RS/Z28
 

Looking for info, owner history or vintage pictures of 1967 RS/Z28 VIN# 124377L156294 either sold new or sponsored by Steakley in Temple, TX. In registry as #184

Offered for sale on the site 10 years ago previously owned by David Ellis in Alabama. Trying to get in contact with him or get any info that is out there about the car. Thanks for the help Andy

Last known registration in State Of Ohio in 2009.

What color was it?? Red??

Here's a link to a 2009 Mecum St.Charles sale ad for the car...

Also, I have a faded old '67 Z-28 pic w/ hard to read Steakley Chev' painted on the sides saved somewhere on my other system.
Not sure which Steakley dealership it was from as there were at least 3, the Temple location was Dan Steakley a cousin of the Steakley Bros.
Again, it's saved on my other system so unless you have the same one already, I'll post it sometime later tonight.

Jonesy yes its a Red car. Pete Id love to see the picture you have if you can find it. Does anyone know David Ellis on the site or when his handle is?

Check in w/ Member ORIGLS6 Dennis as he's mentioned being in contact w/ Dave Ellis here in past threads.
I'll find the Steakley sponsored '67 Z28 pic and post it tonight!

I know a Dave Ellis,but last time I talked to him,he was in a wheelchair here in Illinois and owned and sold this L-78 1970 Chevelle Convertible.

I didn't think he's the same Dave E. being discussed here.

David Ellis goes by Alabamcam on the Team Camaro site. The Steakley car was owned by Chris Cadwallader in Ohio and he's the one who did a quickie resto on it.

Here's the '67 pic mentioned above, again fuzzy but reads Steakley Chevrolet on the sides and more.
Sure wish the pic was better as looking closely, even the deck stripes appear like someone's shadow?:dunno:
Maybe it's a known picture but one indicator it could be from Dan Steakley's Temple dealership is cars sponsored by one of the other Steakley operations would have probably had Steakley Bros. or Steakley Chevytown on the sides like Kelly Chadwick's cars did, not Steakley Chevrolet?:hmmm:

My 68 Impala L72 project was sold used through Dan Steakley early in its life. It still has the worn out mylar sticker on the trunk lid. It says
Dan Steakley Chevrolet “Best Deals in Texas” Temple Texas.
I can send you a picture of it if you’re interested.

That's the correct car. Was built from the factory as a red car but was repainted black with stripes going over the roof. Car was heavily damaged in the rh rear quarter and got parked for years. I was interested in buying it way back when but the damage scared me off. I'd like to see the trunk decal.

I dont think David Ellis owned the car mentioned in the first post. Hes in Alabama. I have met him and he is a great guy.
[email protected] is the email I have for him.

I thought this red z/28 was found and owned by a guy in Texas, unless he sold it.

Found a better old picture of the same car...C-Pillar reads "The Hugger".
Cool info Jon, was the Cowl Plenum w/ it when you saw it pre resto?

David Ellis from Alabama did own the car at one time.

Here's a vintage engine shot which I'm pretty sure is of this car but I did a poor job of labeling the photo when I saved it originally. All the other pics I have of this car are on my old computer and not easily accessible.

Thanks for the help everyone! I appreciate it

Have you been able to contact anybody and track it down?

Here's an eBay auction for a neat Dan Steakley keyring.
