Hey everyone, just thought I would introduce myself. I have a 77 Elky. I hope that is close enough to a Chevelle
to be welcome. It is my daily
driver and I thought it would be nice to join in on the current
discussions. Just thought I would

Try to get the VIN and the cowl tag info.  This would be fun to see
how/where it was made.

Guys,

Dwaine here. I will try the next time to get pics of this car. It is a
normal looking USA SS chevelle except for the speedo. The car was previously
owned by a cousin and he was the original owner. The car has an original
1966 Kansas Title and is in the original owners (cousin)name. He never
transfered the title and parked the car on the farm after the tags ran out. 

I am sure it is setting by the barn with the 67 SS car still. I offered the
guy 5,000.00 cash and was turned down. Oh well, again this car has to be
somewhat rare today. I would think.

Am I the only person wondering if the speedo was just changed at some point?
After all, it's an old car and people do all sorts of wacky things for
various reasons. It's certainly possible that it was swapped out. The person
who did it may not even have realized that it was metric, or maybe didn't
care because the price was right. Just a possibility.

The first generation MCs used the short wheelbase frame similar to the 2dr
Chevelles.  I believe that it is the same from the front cross member back,
but the MCs had much longer rails ahead of the cross member.  Lots of front
overhang.

if yes, then why does it seem like the engine sits so much farther back

Great pictures and a great looking car. I'd say that the wait was

All in all a well thought out project.

Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List



If you're at all interested in the Dynomax headers, please read this.

I spoke with the company that manufactures these headers.  They will
soon be discontinued for the '68/'69 Chevelle due to problems with how
they fit.  They actually recommended that I not buy their headers, and
that I should look for another brand.  Apparently they hit the frame
and/or the firewall.

I'm ordering a set of Hookers from Jet-Hot using the Team Chevelle
discount.

take care,

 Can anyone confirm that the headers listed in the Jeg's catalog (part #
 289-86110) will work with a manual trans in a '69?
 
 I had a set of Hookers that wouldn't fit, and am trying to do a little
 better research this time! :-)
 The issue was that a header tube and the clutch linkages (z bar) wanted
 to be in the same place.
 
 Thanks!
