Enjoy 1969 chevelles and would like to talk to people who do the restoration work 
themselves. 
Presently have orginal matching numbers'69 SS body off frame, hanging it from my 
ceiling in 
garage to get it out of the way. This car has the orginal GM heater hoses on it. 
Question. On VIN plate, someone at the factory manually stamped a "2" on the left side 
and a "10" on the right side of BODY BY FISHER identify plate on firewall. 
Anyone know what this means? 
This is a HT SS396 4 speed posi, buckets, etc. Any ideas?

to fix it.

I Have a '70 El Camino SS 396 w/#s matching 402 in 
restoration.  The car will be mostly stock except 
that car was gold with no hood stripes with the 
black stripe across the tailgate.  This combination 
doesn't do it for me.  Could someone tell me what 
color the tailgate stripe should be if the car were 
Black or dark blue with white hood stripes?

My father , Bill, has recently started restoration of his '64 Malibu SS.
We are woundering if the underside of the body and firewall are painted 
to match the body color or frame black.  As of 7/17/96 the entire car is
dismantled and the body is off the frame and is being sandblasted.
Please feel free to e-mail me with any comments to our paint question.

(Comments)  My 1965 SS was purchased by my father in 1964. 
 We ordered it with a 250hp 327, 4 speed, positraction, power steering and 
air conditioning.  
The car is Sierra Tan with a Saddle interior (unusual for a Super Sport).  
In my youth I used to race the car and eventually lost the original 327, 
it now has a crate motor 350. 
 I love this car and will never give it up.

not SS (don't like paying twice the right price for the same car).
I am looking for other Chevelle and El Caminoa nuts in SoCal to

(Comments)  My 1968 Chevelle SS has been my pride and joy since 1984 
when I purchased it as my first car.  Over the years I have put much time and money 
into making it the GM should have.  The car looks totally stock on the outside, 
except for the 2.5" flowmaster pipes sticking out the back.  
Interior is totally stock with bench seat, column shift, gauges, & AC.  
Under the hood looks stock 375hp with the exception of headers.  
Inside the 396 is were all the modifications have been made.  Lets just say 
about 425hp @ the rear wheels and leave it at that. 
Thats all for now feel free to contact.

Were the proud owner of a 68 chevelle ss 82,000 original miles in great condition.
  On 6/12/96 some dumb idiot rear ended me going 50/60 mph.  My chevelle saved 
my life and kept him out of my back seat!  I feel like my best friend is gone. 
Hope someone can help. My wife and I had this car longer than some of our kids!
  The dash was in perfect shape, all of the interior was hardly worn. 
We had the split bench seat with the Muncie 4 speed.
Factory tack and gauges and even the clock worked.  
This car had never been in an accident and was almost completely rust free.

Hi All:  I own a 1970 Chevelle that was purchased new by my

is original and it is in very good condition.  The interior is
almost new condition.  There is a little rust on the rear inner 
wheel wells, but none on the outter body.  Chrome is perfect. 
It runs perfectly, and has around 70k original miles on it.
Can someone give me a ballpark figure as to what I should ask
as a selling price for this car?  Thanks.

My first vehicle, inherited from my parents, was a 1967 Chevelle
Malibu station wagon. Of course I had to put bigger tires and
magnesium rims on it, and fix up the interior, new paint, etc.

Many people laughed when i started, but many ran up to the car
with offers afterwards. Like most college students, I had to sell
the Malibu, and I've always wanted to find another since.
So, if you know anyone with a station wagon in good shape,
I'd be interested in hearing from them. I've only ever seen one
since (13 years), in North Vancouver, BC. I sold mine in Chetwynd,
BC probably around 1981.

Thanks for your enthusiasm, Al. I checked the Internet a year ago
for 67 Chevelle information and found nothing. I like your site!

I own a prestine 1970 CHEVELLE MALIBU.  It is light mist green 
with a dark green vinyl top.  This car has never had any rust.
Thats because it came from Phoenix Arizona.  I raised it up about
an inch and a half and put 15x8" Corvette rallys in the front
and 15x10" aftermarket rallys in the rear.  This car has factory
disk brakes and factory air conditioning.  Under the hood is the
original matching number 200hp 307.  The engine is bone stock 
except for the Edlebrock aluminum high-rise intake and the Holly
600 carb. that I added.  It is probably the cleanest 307 you've
ever seen.  If you want jpg's of the car and the engine you can

(Comments)  Hi, Al! I'm here for the beer and Chevelles. 
I've bought my '67 SS396 (Powerglide/325 HP)'cause the price was right, 
but a doubt started to grow in my automotive heart. After discovering Al's 
home page I knew that I had to keep the beast with me. 
The Chevelle is dark metallic blue, has a rebuilt engine with TRW .030 forged pistons, 
Edelbrock Performer carb, cam and intake manifold. At the moment, the trans 
developed a heavy leak, so I ordered a TCI rebuild kit from PAW. 
I already asked Al about 
the rear en ratio of the '67 325 HP/Powerglide. Thank you. Luiz Augusto Tinoco

As some of you may have noticed I'm in dire need of a 1965 Chevelle convertable body in 
rust free condition I own, what some Americans would call, a 1/2 and 1/2 car.  
Its a 65 Acadian Beaumont Convertable.  the body is exactly the same as a 65 Chevelle, but... 
the interior and trim package are not even close to the same, (except for the four speed or

(Comments)  PLEASE HELP ME!!!  I currently own a 1972 Chevelle SS.  
The car just recently had a rebuilt 454 ci motor,  a new 400 turbo transmission, 
and a B&M shift kit added.  The car has a new paint job. (Dark Maroon with white
 racing stripes)  
Last night a drunk driver rear ended me.  He destroyed both rear quarter panels, 
both rear tires, the right rear original SS wheel, the trunk lid, the gas tank, 
the rear bumper, the differential, snapped the rear axle in half, and tore 
all of the suspension  from the rear of the car. 
Anyone with parts for sale or knowledge of where to find them please drop me a line.
 Thanks.

Hello, just browsing this morning and found this very interesting 
site.  I have a 72 Chevelle I bought in South Miami after Hurricane
Andrew blew everything away in 1992.  I spend 2 1/2 years working on 
the car.  It may not be 100% show car but my wife and I sure enjoy
riding around in it.    Thanks enjoyed my visit here, will be back.

It's a fairly original car, with a gorgeous interior. 
It's got "malibu ss" rear quarter emblems, but I'm curious 
if any one knows how I could verify if it is an SS or not. 
here are no other SS markings anywhere on the car, 
but it does have the centre console and buckets.
If anyone has any tips, I'd appreciate it.

I own a '68 Chevelle Malibu that starting to look pretty good.
The grunt is provided by a chromed out "RAT" Generation V 454-425hp
topped off with an Edelbrook 750 carb. The rubber to road is supplied
by a TH-400 tranny w/4:11 gears and Street Shot 2500 stall converter.
I changed the brakes over to power disc last year so I could stop 
the thing. This has been the most satisfying car i have ever owned
and turns heads every time i drive it.
Take care and keep those Chevelles running strong.

 My '68 Malibu was originally purchased by my grandfather for
$3576.95 in Ft. Lauderdale Fl. It only has 28,000 miles on it.
I consider it "preserved" not restored. It has a 307, factory
air condition and tinted windows. It's all original down to
the AM radio 'cept for the 15" Craigers I put on it  )

It is a 1968 Chevelle Concours Station Wagon, with a 427cid/425hp
engine.  It has tinted windows and moon rims. and the obligatorybrown 
stripe down the side which is supposed to look like wood paneling.
It runs low 13's and still has the stock AM radio.

I am just starting the restoration of a 1970 Malibu.  I picked it up for 
only $400 from a retired old man who bought it new, original title and all!!  
It has only 76,000 original miles and was undercoated twice in its life, 
so the metal is in excellent shape.
I have already done some mods to it that the stock junkies will hate, 
but it's my ride so I'm building it to my tastes!  The rear bumper has 
been changed to a 71-72 type as I really liked the looks of the round tail lights.  
I've also converted the entire interiorto a black bucket seat interior from 
the original blue bench style.  
I'm currently keeping my eyes open for a console/shifter (automatic) to 
finish off the interior.  The stock 200hp 307 will be replaced with a 380hp 350 
by next summer hopefully.  The entire suspension is being upgraded.  
Power disk brakes and power steering have already been installed.  
The finishing touches will include a working cowl induction hood and a full 
coat of glossy black paint (including the front bumper).  When it is all finished
 I'll definitely send a pic this way, but don't hold your breath!!  
With the finances and work ahead of me, I don't expect it to feel the road until 
the summer of 98.  Chevelles forever!!!!

I don't know anything about my car!  I got a great deal on this 
one and would like to fix her up.  I need some minor interior work 
and a new paint job.  Everything is original on the car, even the radio.  
It's a Malibu Classic series.  I want to upgrade the carborator 
to a four barrel and add a set of flowmasters.  
I am also looking for some black bucket seats with a center console.  
I desperatley need more information about the car.
Please send me any advice you can.  Thanks!
