Just a few miles away!
I had looked at the car about 2 years ago when Rich bought it. It's a 2 tone car with black painted-top.
I'd be interested if I didn't already have 2 red 66's!

I don't know what Rich paid for it. He bought it on eBay from a western state.
It was bid up to $5600 on ebay last week but did not meet reserve.
I did stop to take a quick look at it on Thursday. It's been repainted in the past, but looks very straight. Very solid with some thin rusty spots on rear quarter and trunk mounts.
Next to the GS was a '67 Chevelle SS, also for sale (no price shown, just a phone #). The GS is in better shape tho.

I'd like to see him keep the GS, just wish I had more available time to help him restore it. .... wondering if I can retire early and work for him restoring his cars part time, LOL!
