This came up before, and I posted this one before I think. I sold this to a family from the Chicago suburbs back in the late 90's or early 2000's. I don't know where it is now, but it would be easily identifiable. There was a lot of documentation, receipts, resto info, and owner history.

Dan, to date I haven't found any info for you on the other matter. Still looking.

Note the tag paint line isn't '- -' or 72/72 but 'SP 4644'..

Real LS6 or SS, if the subject car is an original Hugger car maybe there's a chance it or any Hugger '70 we see is one of the Tulsa Ray Bradley Chev Chevelles in the ad below?.

The text beside the pic of the '70 Coupe says...
'...A train load of SS 396 and SS 454 Malibu Coupes with every drive train available factory painted exclusively for Bradley Chevrolet in three of the sportiest colors - Citrus Green, Camaro Gold and Hugger Orange. Custom painted Sport Stripes on some and they're the wildest you've ever seen...'

I like real cars best...especially the REAL real ones!

I was looking for any info on Bradley chevy and came across this thread. my car was bought new at Bradley its a Monaco orange ls6 I recently spoke with the original owner he said when he went there and they had 5 ls6's he cant remember what the other two colors were but green and yellow were the other two besides the orange one. theres another special paint car in the registry from Bradley but it doesn't have a pic or paint code

There was one from the Irwin area outside of Pittsburgh, PA.. I believe the original owner passed away but I don't know where the car went.

PGN featured one that he came across on his Youtube channel in 2019. Note that the car was repainted a different shade of orange, but he shows the trim tag with paint code, and you can also see the original Monaco Orange along the trunk edges.
