Thanks for the warm welcome
Ya'll must all be from the South too, thanks for makin a Gal feel welcome! Am excited to share I spoke with the original purchaser of the 71 Heelz Mobile as I have dubbed it...I went by the trim shop where it's been for awhile now and the hood was up so I noticed the trim tag...had a unique paint code of just plain "C" I'd never seen the likes of before (I know I've seen a few but never seen them all so I keep an open mind and skeptical eye)....started pullin the P&Ps and references, not on file anywhere. So I called up my friendz @ Hinshaws- nope, never saw one like that....ditto from my past Chevelle club Prez....So I am thinkin well maybe?? naw....so I called the lil fella that bought it new, he's still alive and kickin in Durham...was glad to hear from me and confirmed this car was purchased from the dealership with the special Carolina Blue paint, blue trim & blue vinyl top...so since he didn't order it that way the dealership did, maybe for promo or just cause they loved the Heels too? Was sold from the Harriss-Conners dealership June 1, 1971 so it could not stink of more Heelz locality. It's a great piece of local history...it was for sale but after mullin it over Ima just hang onto it and sell one of the kidz! LOL
