69 Yenko Chevelle found

[SS427]

I have heard from one person who knew of the car and the owner and he believes the car was crashed in 1971 not 1970 so that would give more time for the mileage to add up. However, it was in a minor accident when a relative tried to jump a ditch with the car (I found both rockers to be slightly collapsed) so it was in at least 2 accidents. Remember, back in that era these cars were nothing more than modes of transportation and few people cared for them anything like what we do today.

If you knew the owner and his way of living you would understand the reasons for the disarray. In the garage were two disassembled cars, at least 8 disassembled engines, two completely disassembled and scattered motorcycles, etc. As can be seen by the photo in the trunk, that was just part of one complete motorcycle. No rhyme or reason, he just took everything apart and put nothing back together and scattered parts wherever they landed.

The 70 Chevelle was bought years later. He also had several other cars at his lake property. None of which were drivable.
