Well the fact is, that this is second hand info but im definitely gonna get nosey. I go to all the local shows and I mean all lol and Iv never seen it. But my buddy who seen the car said the gentlemen that owns the car looks to be in his mid to upper 80's. Hopefully it turns out to be true. I just want to see it, well id love to own it but... From what I gather Merollis Chevrolet was big into the super cars back in the day and this car (if it exists) is only a mile and a half from there. We will see.

And Dennis Lang did it again in 2008 at the VetteFest LS6 Showcase with his Shadow Grey LS6.

I would take your Chevelle there with you when you approach him..he will know you are serious...

Us Land Surveyors find a lot of great cars !!! We go in back yards, fields and farms all the time...We measure each building, so I am always looking in windows of old barns and garages. Have found my share of barnfinds in the past. Unfortunaetly they are few and far between anymore.

I know a fellow that worked as a telephone pole lineman that looked down into a backyard and found a real '62 Impala SS 409/409 convertible. He was able to buy it and it was then beautifully restored.

Hi Guys,

These cars exist, but as you know lots more "low mile stories" exist than actual "low mile cars".....

Happy Hunting.

Ryan

I don't remember where or when this one was or is.....
