Re: 1969 Chevelle Build
Maybe the best stocker I ever saw was Harry Vineyard's 69 Chevelle L-72 427/425HP. He drive it with a TH400 in B/SA, and Tucker Parrish drove it with a 4 speed in A/S. Harry offered me that car for $9500 about 25 years ago when he bought Eddie Miranian's 69 Camaro SS/EA from Allen Oakley. Probably the most stupid thing I ever did was not buy that car. At least one of the top 5 mistakes I've made in my life.

We might run this car as a stick with the 350/255 combo, but not if we ever run the 427. Go big or go home is the mantra I absolutely live by (often to my own detriment), but the break everything, miss races, pouring money into it daily thing possibility of a big block, heavy stick car thing scares me. I am recently engaged, have a 5 yr old and probably another baby within 2 years and my Dad is going to retire in the near future. We are watching our nickels in order to pull this off. Jim is smilling down on this father-son project, I can feel it

Re: 1969 Chevelle Build
Andy,
I've been following your thread located in the tech section when I decided to take a look at this to see what you were building and how you were coming along. I was very surprised to see the old pictures of your car with the lettering on it. It was done by Barry Wiselogel of Barry's sign shop in Flint, Michigan. He is still in business. As for the sponsor "Tony's Auto Parts", well , that would have been me. I owned the parts store and sponsored the car you have now. Thanks for the pictures. It brought back a lot of good memories. I will continue to follow your build progress. It's nice to see new folks coming into the sport. Good Luck! Mike Meints stk 2104 s/s 2103 |
