70 Chevelle $5500
Has a rebuilt 355 with a nice cam, car runs and drives great, I daily drive it a good bit. Usually I run all my errands at work in it. I might get another Chevelle so I would like to get rid of this one.
If anyone has any questions let me know..

Yeah, I don't like the 71's but the car is clean as hell. I have enough money to fix the other up if I trade so I might still hang onto this chevelle also..
This Chevelle runs damn good though, I drove it to galveston and back no problems. Held about 2200 rpms at 70 and rides nice. Also gets like 13 or 14 mpg city with me revving it to warm it up and getting on it a good bit.

Great looking car. I'm split on the headlight options cause I love the quad beams but I also like the 71/72 corner turn signals opposed to the bumper lenses on the 70's model.
Good luck!

Honestly you could re-body this car for $1,800, that's new fenders, hood, doors and quarter panels. That's the way I would go since my boss wanted $2700 for paint and body. But really all the panels are fine, the only one I think it really needs is the drivers fender since it's got a lot of bondo. But I mean, $2000 for body work to have a panel with some bondo here and there and a chance of waves or rust returning, or a new panel for a little cheaper? A fender is $230 so hell. I would fix everything myself for nothing(the drivers door took like 15 mins and now it's perfect) but I can't sneak **** past my boss, he raises hell when he catches me working on my car.
I figured if I kept the car I would do it that way, then I wouldn't have to worry about any bondo, dents plus I would save some cash and time. If I can sell my SS Camaro or trade it I will most likely keep this Chevelle. It has never let me down and doesn't **** my off like the Camaro and Trans Am do. I have never not been happy driving this car.

It's pretty solid, just has some bondo here and there and the bottom of the quarters need work. The only rust it really has is some pinholes in the trunk.
