Alan Signs did the upside down lettering over the next paint job after the one shown here. Later you will see the lettering blocked out in the Sportsnat's video. Not a repaint per se.

Re: WA Lee 1969 Chevelle Wagon
What is really nice about a Chevelle wagon is the fact that the front/rear weight split is definitely an advantage. Easy car to drive too which will make it all the more fun.
I am not familiar with this particular car, is it a big block?

Re: WA Lee 1969 Chevelle Wagon
I am loving all the interest around the wagon and to hear the old stories are amazing. I tried to upload some pictures of the wagon the way it is now but I am getting the message that they are too large. I do have an album of a couple pictures if anyone is interested in seeing it currently.

Re: WA Lee 1969 Chevelle Wagon
No.. No big blocks in 69 Chevelle wagons...350/255 or 350/250 most of the time, with Powerglide
Leaving out a few .Ray LITTY sold it to a young guy in So. Windsor, Ct., who sold it to Vogel who then sold it to Frank The Wagon Master Tantillo (1989 Summernat's N/SA class winner) Frank sold it to Stinson , who then passed it on to Bob Bender.
