1969 Chevelle SS 396, 4 Speed. Original Monaco Orange color (only available on SS 396). Non-matching numbers, currently has a lumpy 396 that decodes as 71-72. Car starts, runs, and drives, but runs rough. Needs either a new carb or a carb rebuild. The throwout bearing in the clutch is making some noise, and as you can see, not really ready for the road, although you could tune and drive while you restore with some work. Somebody started doing the bodywork on the car and stopped. There were patch panels welded to the front fenders that need finished off. The patches to the quarter panels were not done right and need to be taken off and done correctly. They put the patches on top of the old quarter panels, so you can take the patches off and see the orig panels. Has some rust in the trunk, although the holes are not bad and could be patched. There is one good size rust hole in the drivers floor (about the size of a baseball right in front of driver's seat), but the rest of the floor is very solid. The rockers and doors are very solid, as is the frame. The deck lid has some rust around the latch. The hood is rusted bad on the bottom and will need replaced. There is some rust on the roof (vinyl top car), which I showed in one pic. There is some filler at the top of the rear window, but the roof looks solid from the inside looking at that area (no headliner). All in all, a great start to a real deal SS big block 4 speed Chevelle with the desirable factory orange paint code. if you have any questions, please call me at 501-690-9625. Thank you, Chris
