Gimme a couple days and I'll post a pic of what the car looked like when I first got it. It's quite the transformation

As far as the specs go, it is (was) and all original 1972 Chevelle Malibu that came from Cali (rust free!!). Things I've done to the car since i've owned it are the following: new paint, SS hood, new chrome moldings, Boyds, custom dash with Autometer Phantom gauges, all new interior (buckets), 12 bolt Posi with 3.73 gears and forged Moser axles, boxed rear control arms, Dynomax ehaust and the LT1/4L60E swap. The motor is out of a 1995 Corvette. Basically stock except for headers and a tune. Future mods include a LS1 from an 01 Camaro (already bought). Will have headers, PRC LS6 heads and TSP Torquer 2 cam and a stall. All as $$$ allows. Also gonna use the rear discs from the camaro and put them on the Chevelle. This month, I'll be redoing my fuel system also. Going from a POS external pump to an internal one. Still plenty of work to do and money to spend!!

Wheels are 17x8 in front and 17x10 out back. Tires are Nitto 555's, 245/45s and 285/40's. They fit great.

I have to agree, it takes a extremely great wheel to out do a set of Rallys on a Chevelle. If Rallys looked good on 4th gens Id have em.

The aftermarkets do look good too, though.
