A Bunch of cool old cars...

A friend called me the other day and said he had just got back from looking at a couple of Mopar factory light weight cars. He said the guy that owned them had decided it's time to start parting with most of his collection. He told me there was a Chevelle there I might be interested in. After he described it to me, yes I was definately interested so he arranged to take me to see it the next day. This gentleman has around 50-60 cars all under covers in his beautiful storage building. I missed most of the tour because I was consumed with looking at the Chevelle I went there to see, but I did get in on a few of them so thought I would share....

1967 Camaro L78 - This was a low mile car with all original paint and interior. It had a buildsheet and maybe some other documentation, It did not have the original engine but was indeed a real L78 car.

1970 1/2 RS Z28 - This one was all original except for a repaint. All kinds of documentation including the POP. I believe it had 71k miles. It had excellent original interior. Engine bay and undercarriage looked nice, like you would expect on a well cared for unrestored car.

1955 Chevy - Not much of a muscle car, but this thing was awesome! 8k actual miles! All original everything! Undercarriage was unbelievable for a car this old! It was a one owner car until this gentleman bought it many years ago. If I remember right, I think he said he paid $50 for it! (That was a few years ago - LOL)

1961 Starliner 390/401hp Tri Power - I believe this one had a repaint, other than that it was original also.

I want to go back and see all the cars, I missed so many because I was busy looking over the Chevelle. Every car had a story and most were documented survivors. Not many Camaros, but there were a couple more..one red one that was an all original survivor, but I don't remember anything else about it. There were some Implalas, a bubbletop or two, an Avanti, a bunch of 55, 56, 57's. There was a beautiful 57 Fuel Inj Convertible that was a gorgeous dusk rose color. And of course the Mopar factory light weights. I should have paid more attention to those...they had the drivers suits and memorbilia with them. Even though I missed out on a lot of the tour, it was a great trip and I bought the Chevelle I went there to see. It was a documented survivor with 20k miles. Original drivetrain, paint, interior. Unbelievable find, I was so happy! Her name is Black Betty...and here she is after I got her home and dusted off:
