Hi everyone, new to the site. One of those guys who used to have a Chevelle. You know, where 30 years ago you scrapped a car that would be worth about $10K today. It was a 68 SS 396 4-speed that I pulled the drive train out of and stuck it in a small block 1971 Monte Carlo. Of course wives and mortgages ensured the Monte's sale and only recently I've gotten back into the muscle car game. Nothing like being single to allow you to indulge yourself. I had a wide range of GM cars I would look at (67-72 Chevelles, Camaros, Montes (I know, 70-72), GTOs, Cutlass) and eventually found a little old lady with a 67 Camaro convertible. Being out of the game that long, it sure came as a surprise when it came to prices, particularly for convertibles. Always loved Chevelles, but I guess it wasn't in the cards for now. I'll see about posting a pic of my old Chevelle and provide a link. You'll love the Starsky and Hutch stripe. ;o) I pulled quite a few parts off it and sold most of them (that was a great looking hood). I still have a few bits like the front and back emblems, plus the dash strip. Part of the reason I joined so I could post in the "what's it worth" forum and see who's interested. A bit banged up but the repro plastic stuff strikes me as a little sad.

Welcome - Once a Chevelle owner always a Chevelle fanatic, eh? The Camaro looks really nice. Do you get to drop the top very often way up north? My current 68SS looks similar to your old one, less that white stripe. Its blue with black top also! Once you figure out what you want for the tail light assemblies drop me a note, I might be able to use them if you want to let them go away!

Have fun! You're gonna like it here!

Welcome to a great site.
Are you selling any of the literature?

Hey Jeff, you're right about Chevelles, they get in your blood. Always liked the 68 tailights, but wanted the 69 doors. I'll let you know about the tailights. Sorry oldtime, all the literature/ protecto plate is the original that came with the Camaro and I wouldn't want to break it up.
