You probably won't be able to get any unless you search on Ebay, I've seen some on there before. That magazine was the publication of the now defunct NCOA (National Chevelle Owners Association).

 

Thanks,
I did a search on Ebay about an hour ago and came up empty, will keep trying.

 

It was a magazine that was published by the now "kaput" National Chevelle Owners Association. Not sure when it stopped publication.

 

I have some where between 3-5 years worth...

 

The former president of the NCOA that published the mag, Mark Meekins, occasionally has back issues for sale. Here's a link to an old ebay auction of his for a single issue which sold for $20. Expensive, but in the listing he also mentions he has a set of 100 issues for sale for $300. That was last month, so he may not have them anymore. Here's a link to the auction. The set is mentioned in the description:

thanks,
I will try to get a hold of him

Do you want to part with any? maybe you have some duplicates?

I purchased a bunch from Mark a couple years ago. The set dates from 1985 through 1998. He mailed them to me and included a key chain and club license plate from the NCOA. I have some missing issues but have been able to fill in some of the months via Ebay etc. I would like to finish the set out by collecting all the issues.

Currently I have 5, 3 inch three ring binders filled to brim and going. Lots of good info and original pics. I wonder how many Chevelle owners that had their cars featured on the cover still have them??? I also like looking through the want adds and comparing prices from the 80's to todays parts prices. Enough said but a nice little Chevelle magazine.

I have 3-4 years worth of them at home, from the early 90's. I liked that magazine, it was quite informative, and back then I didn't have internet access or a forum like this to get restoration/repair information.

Not really sorry, maybe we can figure something out. "message me.."

 

I have 85 issues. They start at Jan. 83 thru Oct. 90. They each have 3 holes from being in a binder. I would only sell as a complete bunch. Make an offer for the entire lot. Naturally it will be plus shipping.

Good job Bill- if these aren't sold yet, maybe we should help out by placing the ad here on Team Chevelle?

 

I had no idea that club was around for so long. I only remember hearing about it sometime in the early to mid 90's. Doesnt Mark Meekins own a Z-16?

I called the lady who placed the ad, first she said she "might" have a friend who wants them, then she said she would sell me a few issues and she'll email me with the cost. And then she emailed me and said did not want to sell them! Very confusing, but thanks guys!

talked to Mark today, said at one time he used to have 5 Z-16's. Doesn't have one currently.

 

Wheelhop,
What did he say about back issues of Chevelle Report? Does he have any issues for sell?

Trooper

Funny,

Just got off the phone with Mark Meekins and he's got a few more sets of 115 Chevelle Reports he's willing to sell. (1985-2000)
He said it's ok to give out his # if you're interested:

Mark Meekins
The Chevelle Report
336-687-5035

 

How much $ ?

 

$345 plus shipping.
I asked him if he had ever considered putting the whole series on CD (1982 to the last issue). He stated he considered it but not a high priority. Hopefully that is something that will happen in the near future.

 

Having never seen any "The Chevelle Report" magazines,was it similar (in size and content) to "todays" ACES Chevelle World, or was it a lot bigger and more informative with more -tech info -numbers -history -ect... Just curious? Thanks

 

Mr.

From my perspective the comparing both magazines is really not needed. Both are very good sources of chevelle info and how to do things etc. I think Chevelle World has taken time to cover more of the Regional events, Chevelle-bration along with car articules etc. and expanding the family atmosphere and National membership.

The Chevelle report covers how to do fixes repairs etc., along with some nice original magazine ad pics, dealer pics, want ads and some club coverage stuff. Some issues published have original GM Plant manufacturing pics and articules. To some degree all the Chevelle information and details published looks sort of regurgated but in a good way. I have both magazines and feel they both add value. I am like some others trying to fill in the missing issues along the way.

Good Luck
Dwaine

 

My 67 SS project came with a 4" stack of the Chevelle report. Very good info. I read them all before/while tearing it down for restoration.
