off the top of my head, 2 in Scottsdale/Phoeniz AZ area. 1 near KC, Missouri, 1 in southern IN (Kurt Karch your 69 H/O advisor for OCA), 1 (possibly another) in northwest IN, 1 in the Chicago area and a couple outside StL on the IL side. Oh yeah, Ron Memmer in IN has one also along with one in FL that was just recently (or may still be) on ebay.

Not many compared to the more common cars but there's a handful. Couple of shows in Raleigh in November (11/12 at the Fairgrounds and 11/19 at Grill57). Not sure about Charlotte which is about 3 hours from me.

firefrost,
I did make it to the HO nats this summer - very nice show. Got to meet and have my pic taken with Doc Watson. That was a special moment in my Olds experiences over the years.
As for the car, I have been collecting parts for this thing since I bought it. Fortunately, the car was about 90-95% complete when I bought it, but it was COMPLETELY apart. Even the frame was out from under it. .
Always looking for NOS parts, as I have 3 other 69's.
thanks

There is one local to me north of Pittsburgh, PA. He has only drove it 2 or 3 times in the last 25 years that I have known about it. I offered to keep it limbered up, but he wisely declined the offer.
He is the 2nd owner, his brother-in-law bought it new.

Actually, I have to revise my total, think it's up near 14 or more. Myself, Chuck Johnson down near Kankakee, Mike Moss & Paul Panczuk in NW Indiana. Chuck knows of one across the border in the Crown Point area I believe. Darrel Bauma, John McCarthy in Naperville, Eric in Chicago, Joe Spagnoli has 3 I believe. There is one SW of me in Joliet or that vicinity and there are 2 others I see show up at Byron for racing. Of all those in maybe a 60 mi radius of each other, I've only had 3 show up at a Hurst/Olds day, and that's because Kurt Karch from southern Indiana came up for it. Granted some may have been in restoration, but that leads into your question, it's hard to count them if you don't see them. Perhaps best guess I've seen is 1/3 up to 1/2 left??? Last time I talked to Kurt he's always surprised when he hears of an actual unrestored one popping up. So they are out there and keep turning up.

was this quoting yourself? and you arent a stalker, i think it is kinda cool how you know about as much as me and the background on the car, and have actually seen it.
