Title: Looking for CRG Members from Lebanon PA.
Post by: TooManyReels on March 11, 2014, 03:28:42 AM
Are there any CRG member from the Lebanon Pa. area on this site. If so, I would like to discuss with you my search for a Burnish Brown 1969 Z-28 sold by a person from the southern part of Pa. in the late 1970's.  For the past three years, I have been tracking down leads to a motor I have been looking for. 

Today, I received a call from a person I met from a friend on this site.  We spoke about a two months ago and he said that he would help me track down the original car owner, which he did, which was awesome.  He provided me with the original owners name and the name of the person the original car owner sold the motor to, which was to his knowledge put it in a Burnish Brown Z.

Its amazing what you can learn and find out if you are prescient in your search and have wonderful contacts like members on this site. That's what makes this hobby, so great. If you are from or near the Lebanon areas please PM me so I can ask more questions regarding this car..  I may never end up finding or getting the motor that I'm looking for, but at least I can still search to see if miracles do come true.

TMR..

I am in Lewistown.   I knew of a burnished brown car that ran at the drag strip I worked at.   The guy that ran it bought it off his brother but never changed the title.   They ran a 350 in it supposedly they had the oe 302 but it was hurt.    I have a 010 CE block that would work for your car.

Guys, thanks for the help.  It may never pan out in my favor that I find this motor, and that will be OK too. I'm having a great time looking for something in life where you get small leads on to keep you looking and working towards the end goal...Or, to get you to the next lead.

I find it humbling that total strangers "car guys" are willing to help someone find something they have no vested interest in other than to help. What a great hobby and country we live in.
