Hey William...Greg here...we chatted last week about that other car

I might have my old copy of John Hooper's book somewhere, which is where I think I wrote the VIN of the LOS car in..

The car from a "numbers" standpoint checked out with dates before the body and stampings looking good. From what I remember the VIN was inline with known production dates as well..

If I remember at Ed wanted $19k for it...which was inline with Z prices from what I recall as well.

Not sure about what the auction says..  or candidly if he did in fact sell it there… he said he did but might not have.

If anyone has older Hemmings probably could find the listing .. the car was definitely black

I believe Ed Uylate (sp?....guy owned a lot of cars back then...Boss 429's, a '69 RG Yenko, 'vettes. etc.) listed this specific car in the fall of 1995 through Hemmings. A buddy and myself went to look at it...think he sold it at BJ Jan. '96.

The things that really concerned me about the car at the time were the fact it was a LOS car without paperwork and had a ton of "comfort" options which seemed odd given the performance options

Anyone remember the car?

Hi all

Anyone know the whereabouts of a black with black deluxe RS/Z28 JL8 sporting a crossram and a ton of options....was a LOS car...was listed in Hemmings in '95 or '96...was owned at the time by Ed Uylate (sp?)

Curious where it went

Hi all

Anyone know where this SS/RS L78 is?  I'd love to chat with the owner. I will try to dig some pics up of it when I owned it (92-97)

Hi everyone

Anyone know the whereabouts of a 02D 1969 SS/RS L78 VIN 124379N608599? I used to own the car (early '90's) and last I heard it was sold by RK Motors. I have some old pics and info on the car.

Any info appreciated.

I'm looking for the whereabouts of a Norwood '69 SS/RS L78, Oylmpic Gold coupe. I believe the last 6 are 508699 built 02D. I used to own the car and would like to speak to the current owner. I heard the car was restored and last in PA. It was nicely optioned with endura, deluxe, gauges, M21, posi, etc.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
