Any members in Calgary or southern Alberta familiar with this car?


The photo is of a 68 Chevy Biscayne 4 door sedan that was for sale in Calgary in 2004. Butternut yellow with black interior, 307, Powerglide. I looked at the car but didn't want to ship it at the time so I didn't buy it. Dealer was Direct Auto Sales, 3020 Ogden Road in SE Calgary. I talked to the dealer in 2008 but he didn't know where the car went. I've been watching for it off an on for the past 4 years. Any info appreciated. Thx.

I drive by this spot every day. Even today. To bad I didn't read this thread earlier!cryI'll do a fly-by and report back to you. I haven't noticed a car like this one before. i can tell you they have a collection of Datsun 240 and 260 'zs from the 70's there. So that means there is someone working there or an owner with an interest in collector cars.

Back at ya in a day or two.

Always fun to drive thru Ogden. There's some neat little "Mom and Pop" car lots along the way. Every once in a while there's something rare. Where they come from-who knows.......a purchase might be risky? I won't reommend leaving a cash deposit eather. But it's fun to monitor the inventories thowink!

It was no derby car for the asking price he wanted.

Well I idled by this Ogden Road car lot this afternoon. 80% of the inventory was still covered in snow. The rest of the inventory that is exposed, is in some sort of state of disrepair. Jacked up.....wheel/tire missing, body work being done, etc. Not the type of place one would feel trusting in dealing with. In fact, I wouldn't be suprised if the place hasn't had a change in management or ownership since you spotted that '67 Chevy.

I'll keep a watch out for the car around there, but I might not slow down.......LOLhmm

Whoops....you are right, it's a 68, not a 67, my mistake.

The car I was interested in was in really good shape but I do understand what you are saying; not all of the inventory was of that quality.
