I have a 19 Z06 coming in a month. I currently have my wife’s Velar and a 2012 Cadillac CTSV Coupe. I am selling the V and a friend offered to buy my Chevelle. I’ve owned it for 10 years this November. I either put a lift in the garage so I can keep both cars inside or I sell it.

I am not desperate but want to be fair on a price.

I don't know what it would be worth, but I would guess a lot more pictures are needed. But I do really like the look of it.

If it was mine, I think I would put a pair of rear antennas on it, and a lot of tire build up on the lower quarters. And not change much else. I'm not a fan of non-stock dash/clusters, but from the 1 picture it looks like it was nicely done. And I wouldn't choose those wheels, but I don't know if I would be in a rush to pull them off either. And maybe bump up the rear 2" or so.

You have a lot of custom, non-stock things done to the car and that makes it much harder to put a price tag on it.

Since custom items are judged in the eye of the beholder, will these custom changes be a plus or a minus to the cars value?

It’s hard to say with the posted pictures. The car looks nice, but does the black hood come across as integrated into the design or like it was a repair that couldn’t be paint matched? To get top dollar the rear of the car needs to sit a bit higher, it also needs four wheel disc brakes, you will likely need to have the hood painted to match. I’d say between $25,000 and $40,000, spending on fit and finish plus how long you are willing to sit in the car.

I have the front wheel well moldings. I took them off thinking I liked the look but haven’t put them back on. The pic with no grill is a few months old.

The original painted hood was thrashed by the seller who tried to put hood vents on a non SS hood.

I sprayed it with a satin black.

The car is 75% there. I just don’t have the room for it

So my 19C7 Z06 arrived and my CTSV is gone. The Chevelle is in an indoor storage facility and I’m probably going to fix the rear shocks and put it up for sale this fall.



Someone asked if I miss seeing my Malibu in the driveway. I said NO.

Dang that is pretty. It almost looks like a render/fake, as in it looks too good to be real
When I first saw the C7 at the Indy 500 I new it was a game changer for GM. And now they kicked it up another notch.

Mine is a manual. The base C8 will probably smoke mine but I didn’t buy it for the 0-60 times. I wanted the last year of the front engined manual. It may very well be the last manual Vette.

My last DD was a manual CTSV coupe.

Well. I’m back after a couple years. I’m keeping the Chevelle. Motivated. Brake and suspension upgrades planned and AC.

Well done and Welcome back Norm !!! That is the best choice you could have made.Only thing to do now is get a diaper so your Chevelle doesn't drip fluids on your new Vette. ;)
