That is a '67 Chevelle. We are almost ready to put the body back on the frame.

Oh, and the white square on the ground at the rear of the car is the windshield frame to my brother's '93 YJ. We like to stay busy.

It's technically a Malibu, from the VIN. They all end up as SS clones anyway.

Graham,

It will likely (hopefully) look a little closer to this:


We are trying a new(ish) approach of a gloss candy red powdercoat. And will be making the exterior as stock as possible.. The interior is fair game though!

I'm pretty sure I will have the FXSTC done well before the Chevelle. That will be a longer-term project.

I have a Chevelle question, isnt the vin no specific as to if it is a SS. I was told once that Chevey SS is easy to clone because the VIN doesnt really specify. MOpAR VINS for instance spell out exactly what the car should be. And to stay on track, mom had a 66 Chevelle when I was a kid in the 70's. Two door 283 Powerglide. Good car.

This is how we decoded the VIN to get Malibu vs Chevelle.
