Default Pics of the old mans Chevelle

This is a bunch of pics of my dad's 1967 Chevelle SS. It is a beast! I have to say it sounds really close to a NASCAR or Pro Street in terms of sound when the dump's are open.... I don't know the spec's off the top of my head as to what he put into the motor, all I know is that he has a gigantic cam and much, much more.... I figured that while I had the camera out and since this is a car forum, we all could enjoy a good looking muscle car....

Here's a pic of my Chevelle. The pics I post awhile ago had my little weiand 142 blower, since then I upgraded to an intercooler D1SC. Night and day difference!!! And yes...the hood fits. Just didnt have an extra set of hands but really wanted to drive it :-) With 295/50's in the rear it does rolling burnouts from 60-65 MPH :-)

There was a concept Chevelle made years ago. Built on the GTO chassis. Not terrible but could be better.

Damn!!! That thing has a 454 in it! They should put the round head lights on it instead of the mid 80's camaro lights. and get rid of the hideous rocker panels and i would be sold

I really don't like it.... For that fact, I really don't like the new camaro's... I think they look hideous.... The only modern retro car I like now that is being produced is the Challenger... I think that Dodge hit a home run with that one...

Very true. I just dont like the fact that they made it that heavy. Back in the 60s and 70s, they were only a little over 3 thousand pounds. They are now about close to 4 thousand. But i still like them over any other pony cars
