$98,000? Didn't it sell at an auction a few years ago for around $12,000?

i dont know but it sold from Baldwin in 1973 for $12,030. it was the highest selling chevelle they ever built

Wow! Honestly I would have figured somewhere around $120-$130k for this one. This is probably THE most famous Chevelle built. If someone disagrees show me another that has had as mush press coverage.

something strikes me as odd for about 6 months ago this Baldwin / Motion Chevelle was owned by a guy named Tom Cahill and had no intentions of selling it ...........HHHMMMMMMMMMMMM makes me wonder did some do one hell of a clone or is it the real deal the owner of this the last I knew of ===>>Tom Cahill Email: tom4221@aol.com Location: Wayne, NJ


I dont believe there was ever a column mounted tach as well on the car

Whoa whoa whoa.......... 12 bolt rear?


I thought those didn't come under G3's. Was this a one off or did some other 73 cars get 12 bolts? I just noticed it after Limey said something about the tach & I started looking closer. Maybe the latest owner installed it?

The ad disclosed that. Claims to have letters from the original owner describing how he wanted the car built, along with work orders from Motion.

So yes, it is a factory-installed 12 bolt.

Maybe Mr. Cahill is in a situation where he needs to sell or he changed his mind about owning it for a long time.

no thats the way it was ordered and also why it cost so much over the standard 73 SS Chevelle sticker cost.

And you might be right red he might be in a tight spot and knows this is a ONE OF ONE CAR and knows it will bring the money under any circumstance

oh my. what a car. Wonder if GM has any performance specs for this car.

well hot dam did some digging this may be the real deal he had it for sale in 2003 for a mere $60 grand

National show winner, Most expensive chevelle ever produced, Documented by Joel Rosen, Extensive paperwork. $60K

That car got sold at one of the big Auction houses maybe 2-3 years ago
for over a hundred grand . The dude that bought it from Tom must have put
it for sale again. I actually met Tom at a Chevelle show in CT about 10 years
ago. He told me how they found that car just by chance getting off the NJ turnpike at the wrong exit and making a few turns to get back on found it in a guys yard under a tree with a Superbird parked next to it.

does anyone know if it sold

Ran across this, pretty cool. Love this car!

Great picture there .That Sunrise Highway in Nassau County Long island. Big cruise /car area -even today.

That car is awsome I would love to get my hands on that hone o drive
