Thank you for the video. The silver '68 Z-28 looks like the car my buddy had back in the early 1970's. The "CHEVY" decal and the "BERGER" decal are identical as well as the color. We are from Hudsonville Michigan near Grand Rapids. He was not the original owner and the car was 5+ years old when he had it but it looked brand new. His Z was silver and we did frequent Berger Chevrolet's high-performance department which was quite famous back then. Berger also sponsored and fielded several race cars at the local drag strips. US131 Martin Dragway in particular, now called US131 Motorsports Park. My buddy, Jack, sold the car and got married around 1976. Sadly, Jack passed away from cancer in 1979. RIP my friend.

Awesome video on some cool finds. I went to College in the early 80's near Berger Chevrolet on 28th st in Grand Rapids Michigan. I was lucky enough to checkout some of the collection they had. They also told me I was saying their name wrong. It's not Berg-er...it sounds like Ber-jer Chevrolet. I ended up purchasing an 82 K5 blazer from them for my Pop. My buddy was a used car salesman, and he gave me a bunch of dealer stickers for the back ends of the cars. Still have them today too. Just like the one on the back of that 68 silver Z-28.

Patrick Glenn Nichols Musclecar Barn Finds...I just came across this video and I'm a first-timer to your site! WOW...the proverbial trip down memory lane and I'm floored by your muscle car knowledge! Now, nearly 60 years old, my hindsight is MUCH better than my eyesight...I still have a handful of vintage Detroit, but the one I miss the most, is a '70 Chevelle SS 454 (LS5 option), rag, turbo 400, candy-apple red with white SS cowl-induction. I purchased it from a friend in '79, who bought it new, then sold it to another buddy (that worked in the paint shop at the local GM plant) in '83 so I could purchase a wedding ring! Well, I have to say, they've both aged beautifully and I still have the wife (we married in '85)...but my buddy still has my first love and won't trade!

Didn't elaborate much on the 68 bird.. I noticed correct hockey stick 400 grilles along with correct 400 hood and the optional rpo code 471 hood tach. However it did seem from what I could tell was the dummy covers inside the 400 hood openings so my best guess would be that she's a standard 400 4 speed car and not a ram air II car but still cool none the less. Another interesting fact on these cars is all AC cars got the x-filler panels under the hood, behind the nose and before the rad to keep the cool air pushing thru toward the radiator but otherwise non AC cars did not get them unless it was a true 400 car cause all 400s received the x filler panels

Thanks for sharing your unique experience. As others have posted, the cost to restore those cars would be more than what they would be worth after the restoration. Their "asset value" would be in certain hard to find and high value original parts that some of them still have. If the cars were from the southwest and essentially rust free and straight, the restoration equation may make more sense. If they had intact original drive trains that would definitely make a difference.

I am a Chevy guy... specifically Camaro, but I love those Chevelle's too... I know it has probably been asked, but can you say if those cars are destined to be rust piles, or are they going to be saved? I would soooo be interested in any one of the Camaros there. And heck, any of those cars as a matter of fact. But first generation Camaro, and early second gens... I am so in love with those cars. What would it take to get this owner to part with a project?

My first car out of high school in 1975 was a 1969 Chevelle SS 396 4-Speed bench seat in Silver. Way to much car for a kid.

That is so sad seeing those Chevelle’s sitting there like that..I’ve seen worse than those being fully done over...and that ‘69 is a dream car of mine...I’ve been as Chevy man all my life and my two favorites is the ‘64 Impala and the ‘69 Chevelle....the body styles are second to none....I had to sub this channel...i LOVE barn finds especially these ones with fine old Chevys....

Dale M; My first car was a brand new 65' Impala. Actually, I bought it when the 66' models came out but, I was the first owner. It was Tahitian Turquoise with a light Blue interior. The first thing I did was to put dual exhaust on it. Cherry bomb mufflers, chrome exhaust tips, chrome reverse trims and, a few other accessories like a 4 Track tape player. I loved that car and it bothered a lot when I traded it in on the 69' Chevelle SS. Oh, if foresight was a sharp as hindsight, wouldn't we all be geniuses?

i inherited a ‘69 chevelle from my uncle. he’d built a 454 for it, it’s going to be my first car and i plan on driving it to next school year, if not this year. all it needs is a gas tank, some plumbing, and a carburetor to be put back on. i’ve realized that i’m really lucky with what my uncle left me.

I've been thru about half a dozen camera's in the past 5 years and what you have is what I;ve been looking for.Thank youBTW: the silver z28 and the the yellow 69 chevelle are awesome finds!
