Did you get any pictures of the cheetah? I have always been a fan of the
car.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] OT 1965 Cheetah
BTW I got to see a 1965 Cheetah in person this past weekend. Quite a
treat. The only car ever known to blow its own doors off.
From an article about Cheetahs...
"Cheetahs are the only cars ever to blow the doors off Big Block Cobras ?
and their own too!" Both Grant and Clusserath discovered that once you
get a Cheetah up to about 180 mph the doors literally "blow off" and sail
off into the landscape!
Chevelle content: There was also an original 1970 SS Chevelle there w/
functional cowl induction hood. I did not get to speak to the owner but I
could tell that it was an original by the age that showed on all the SS
details (the rubber rear bumper pad, the emblems on the door panels &
steering wheel, etc.).
