You don't need to be a supporting member to do that. Donations are voluntary, no one is punished if they choose not to donate.
GM Heritage Canada will get you a build sheet on this car. 64 and up they have build sheet, 63 down, they have just general info, but do have transmission, colours in and out, selling date and dealer, and engine info, including HP. With a build sheet proving how it was built, this body is likely worth more than 327 4 speed 64 for instance.
Nice find.

DON'T PART IT OUT. Somebody will want to build it!! Your not going to get lottery winning money out of it but definitely more than you paid for it. Only so many real 09 cars left out there now.
If you can get documentation that this is a real 409 car that's a definite game changer, REGARDLESS of condition.
I really doubt I'll part it. I will definitely get the gm paperwork, thanks for the heads up on that. I did get the trunk open today, but nothing really spectacular to report. The Big radiator is in there, original 1100668 Alternator with the large pulley, Limited Slip Differential yellow decal on trunklid, old pressure plate, set of new brake shoes, fuel pump, some old oil tins, set of feeler guages , old soscket set (half missing) other odds and ends. I also did verify that the car does indeed have the return fuel line also.
I just made my donation to become a supporting member. Hate to advertise/make $ on someone elses site without becoming a member. Thanks Bob.
You know what that means
Come on big money!!
425hp money!Im really curious to see what your Canadian GM paperwork says
is there any way to tell, from the way the car sits now, if it would have been a 425 hp or 400 hp, or a 340 hp car?...I'm very confident that it's a 409 car, and not being and auto at least makes 400hp or 425 a possibility...any production figure breakdowns on how many of each 409 version ?
Yes, unfortunately I did not get the tach with the car. I'm having conflicting ideas on what to do with the car, just get the GM Heritage paperwork, and sell it as is (clean it up, get the wheels turning, add some wheel/tires hood windshield etc) or should I spend a day or two and put a solid rolling chassis under it (this frame has rust thru under firewall area pretty bad) I would transfer the fuel lines, tank/sender, etc).....my thinking was that if someone had to get it transported, it's cheaper to ship just one vehicle, instead of the car as is, plus another chassis. Thoughts/input?
Get the docs, that's huge if it's a real 409 car. Docs worth two, three thou if it's 409car. Then let the new buyer decide what to do from there.
$$$$$
Really, doc's worth that much, even if it turns out to be a 340 or 400hp 409?....
The car will be worth more with proof that it was a 409 car instead of trying to guess with fuel lines etc. Even better yet if it turns out to be a 425hp car.
Docs will make the difference between selling that rusty car and not selling it.
