Nice start !!!!!!!!!!!, give us particulars on what you are going to do with it. Also what part of the country you are in.

im in north texas, the car is an original 350, factory A/C car, with automatic on the floor (smooth collumn) i bought it from a guy that has had it since 1979. it needs a right rear quarter, front right fender, hood, and a trunk pan, other than those issues its a damn good start, i plan to go the pro-touring route, i want lots of power and good handling.

here are some interior picshttp://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m51/lownfastsonoma/10-04-06031.jpg

You've got yourself a solid project Chevelle, and you've found the best website for restoring and modifying it, so get crackin :thumbsup:

Congrats! Looks like a great start and just in time for a winter project.

how much is this car worth as it sits??? just curious

Congrads!!!!

I think someone would easily pay $1500 to $2000
Guys and Gals do you agree?

Congratulations on your first Chevelle. Keep us posted on your progress.
Looks like you have a helper already.

I agree. Looks like your dog is interested, he looks pretty cool. If you need any help, this is seriously the place to come. I would be so lost without this site. Why the orange paint all over the chassis and wheel wells? Someone must have gone a little crazy.

Hell yeah I'll give ya $1500 for it. (I think it's worth more, but I'm not gonna tell you that) Did I say that out loud? Where at in north Texas? I live about 2 1/2 hours from Houston in Louisiana. I wish my 68 was that nice to start with. The problem I had/have is, it looks nice from a distance, but someone troweled on about 2 gallons of bondo and roofing tin then shot it with gloss exterier latex. Or at least, that's what it looks like. That's gonna be a real nice car when it's done. Good luck!

You can tell its a north texas car.... 97.1 the EAGLE sticker on the back!
THATS BEEN A WHILE!

Your not serious are you? You have a good start there and it's not easy to find one like that. Who knows when you'll find another one.

I Agree

Just Kidding Ya Gotta Do What Ya Gotta Do. But Chances Of Findin Another In Good Shape Are Getting Hard To Find!! Good Luck, Chev702

ya i dont know that i would find another car as solid as this, if i only had a motor in it, i would just sell my other cars....

well i was digging around today and found the original owners warrany page with the metal plate, is this worth anything? what kind of info can i get from it??

If your talking about the protecto plate it has the original owners name and poss ph number, I am no expert on protectoplates but others here are and will give a much better answer than I.

sold it, its a sad day....

DOH!! I sold a beautiful 70 Dodge charger back in the day because I needed the money, You should see what I settled for to replace it 15 years later. I wish you better luck in finding an (A) replacement job, and (B) a replacement Chevelle. All hope is not lost. It all works out in the end. Good luck!

You have your work cut out for you, but you will be rewarded in the end, good luck
