Discussion Forum - Northstar Chevelle Club

Sound like he is in my age catagory. Wonder where he bought the 67. Maybe it was a L79, kind of rare.

Nope I just saw a 67 wagon with a factory L79 engine at Brett Jensens place a couple weeks ago.

 I thought the L79 was discontinued after mid-year '66 ??

Hope to see him there.

 Discontinued for the entire 66 model year, yes.  Then reinstated in the 67 model year according to my research.

 

Maybe Chris will build the 1st one?

The thought has crossed my mind to build a fake L79. But I already have all the pieces for my 302 build.

They all look alike when done, so put an L79 sticker on the air cleaner...

 

It'd be cool to have another '67 in the club...even if it is short a couple doors.

 I won't tell you how old he is but he was born between 1943 and 1945.

I think I might have him by a year. He could have grown up in the same area I did. St Boni is only about 25 Miles from Buffalo where I bought my 66 new.
