History
Born in Atlanta in August of 1966, lived a long time in Arizona, moved to Chicago for a few years, then I bought it and brought it to Colorado. It came to me with a built 350 SBC and 700R4 but I had already built a supercharged Gen IV LSx with Magnum 6-spd to swap into it so the SBC and 700R4 were sold off. The car is now built along pro-touring lines as a canyon carver and fun cruiser.
1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Sport Coupe; acquired by current owner in 2015. It goes, turns, and stops with the best of them!
