Not that it would be made public but has the vin been found. I seen you listed it as having a under dash tach, so no factory tach? I've decided that I'm joining the hunt. I will be checking every 69 chevelle I see or hear about.
I have located a primered black 69 bench seat 4 speed car with a factory 6000 tach. Been sitting in a garage in a local city with no motor, trans, or interior for along time. Likely not the car but I'm going to look.

Hi Mike. Thanks for joining &quot;Team Find The Jenks&quot;.

You are in the right are to keep an eye out and ask around.

As they bought the car one year old the added tach makes sense. (agree it probably was a non gauges car, but any probable cars should be checked out as anyone could add gauges in a weekend)

I think the big factor would be the 76-76 paint and 755 ~ Black Coated Fabric bench seat interior, if the local car has those options and 3/8 fuel line I would see if they will let you sand down an area to look for the D96 stripe (If it is in rough shape of course) They said there was not another DY-DY 69 in the area back in the day, the others the Hintons knew about had vinyl tops.

The VIN I am chasing is for the &quot;loose&quot; L89 engine a friend has. NCRS Docs cam back on it and it was in a 13637 2 door hard top 1969 Chevelle with 4 speed transmission........sold new 500 miles away......
