Ah, beautiful orphan you have there...congrats on the adoption.
I have a soft spot for GM A bodies...although I'm a chevelle man, I still think that's one of the prettiest A bodies ever made. Nice score! Good luck with her.

i've always loved chevelles too but this was the right price at the right time (just won a longstanding bet) and even though it's not running a 455. it will still do what i need it to.

Is the shop doing body work or just gonna throw some color on it? You can do a lot with some hand tools and body shims, from the pics...looks like they left the shimming for later.

That will be a nice ride in Black. The 65' & 67' GTO are on my short list if I ever win the lottery.
The last old car I had was a 67' Dodge Coronet 500 2dr Ht w/383HP & 4sd. |
