Oh yea... it was a fairly low-mileage car when it left here. I think Dennis spent more time with it at the local dragstrips than anywhere else up until the last dragstrip was closed in '79. After that, Dennis enjoyed showing the Chevelle at local car shows up until he sold it to Otis around 1983 or 84. Just for S&G's... I had heard that the car was sold for somewhere in the neighborhood of $25,000 back then.

Was Dennis the original owner?

Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty certain he was. As I understand it, Dennis still retained all of the original documentation for the car and this is the reason why Otis had to have it for his collection. Despite some of the strange items Dennis had bolted onto this car, I have to admit that he was a smart man for not throwing anything away. Just my opinion, but I would consider the car to be one of the finer examples out there.

I believe you are correct. Keith did show me a large folder of paperwork he had on the car.
