Looking for background info of my car, 69 Chevelle

Chipper Chapman · 01-10-2015, 12:17 AM

Just wondering if anyone has some background info or history on my car, it's a 69 Chevelle stocker, I bought from Frank Tantillo out of Conneticuit. Supposedly been a race car for a long time, I can faintly read an old division one number on the side glass that looks to be 161? Any info appreciated, thanks.

Looks very similar to a Chevelle that Gary Parker had about 10+ years ago.

Interesting Tony, thanks. Frank told me he had got the car from mass but wasn't able to tell me the guys name at the time, if that helps. I also have a picture that was sent to me that shows the car with number 1104 on the window, taken at maple grove (keystones) in 2004. On Autoimagery the car comes up under the search Kevin Fuller in years 04-05 at reading and englishtown, with the 1104 on the window.

That car was bought and built by Pete Merceri and myself back in the 90's Kevin Fuller raced it for a few years in the 2000's and then Pete got the car back. He sold it to Frank Tantillo .
