Re: My New 72 Chevelle

Man nice work! The dark green looks awesome on the Chevelle's one of my favorite colors on them. I had a 72 Chevelle Malibu wish I never sold it.

It was awesome! Of course I made some changes to it. She is way meaner then when it was in the truck. I can roll on the gas at 40mph and it goes straight up in smoke. not bad considering it still has the stock 2.76 rear gears in it! Cant wait to get the rear end done and really stand on it!

Re: My New 72 Chevelle

First car show for the Chevelle Ended up in a three way tie for 4th place! Couldn't be happier considering its in primer and has a 43 yr old interior.
