Canadian 1969 Chevelle 300 Deluxe SS, L78, M22

[427strato]

Well, there were not a lot of W31s' around back then. A fellow from Woodstock, (Marv), had a medium blue one that he would bring to Brantford to race. Scary car back then for a 350; turned high 12s' if I remember correctly. I certainly didn't want to run him and I had 427 cars; he is still racing and I wouldn't run him now either and I'm still running big horse cars, well big horse for my era. Another friend from Burford that I bought my 66 425-425 hrs Corvette from, (Darryl, bought a 69 silver one in the late 70's. I went out in it and it seemed pretty quick at the time. If I remember correctly the one in the showroom at Morris-Carters was a light green or yellow; a long, long time ago and my memory is not what it used to be. You realize that for me to buy these cars new puts me in my late 60's so we don't remember everything as accurately as we maybe should. Those three are the only ones I remember from that time. Doug.
