Chris & Tami Saunders '68

Car info: I was fortunate enough
to have a 68 Chevelle SS for my first car (high
school) in 1977, but I unfortunately had to sell it to pay for college
in 1982 for around $2000. It seems like I have been just browsing at
them off and on
for the last 10 years.
I saw a 69 SS at a car show at Lowes and started
talking to a friend about it. I looked on Ebay to see what 68 SS’s were
going for and saw one in KC that was very similar to my first car. My
wife Tami and I had our first date in my original 68 so she gave me the
ok to proceed.
I hired an appraiser to check it out and ended up buying
it. I do not have much history on it, but I have done some research and
found out that the colors are correct. Additionally the body, motor,
and tranny are numbers matching to the VIN (which I did not know when I
bought it). It is an early build 138 car out of Atlanta, and it is
mostly
stock with PS, PB, and factory AC. It has been somewhat restored with
nice paint, vinyl top, and new interior. I am excited about working
with the club on finishing the restore and keeping the car as stock as
possible. |
