Nessy, last time I was in New Hampshire there were a number
off crows on the edge of the road looking over a fallen comrade.
It seems as though they had caw, caw, caw down they had not yet mastered truck, truck, truck.

What is Boston speak for truck? That was prolly the problem!

I liked the 67 chevelles, but my favorite was the 65. Went to the digs in Great Bend Ks in early summer of 65, and a guy had a 375 hp 396 in a 65 that was going in the 11's. Pull the wheels out of the hole and carry them into second gear. That is one car I've always wanted and never got!

I am a Chevrolet guy, but when I go to a classic car show, I find myself enjoying the body styling of the other GM brands and walking right past the Chevelles. Plain Jane except on race day.

Fast was always more important than looks to me! Had a 57 chevy station wagon with a 375hp 396 in it when I got home from nam. It was ugly, but run, it did!

You had a 57 wagon too...we must be related....

Lee, back in 1972 I had a chance to pick up a 67 Chevelle SS with a 396 4 speed for $800.
I was making I think $2.40 an hour pouring melted iron into sand molds at the local foundry,
Yep, that was $96 a week before taxes. Then again a case of beer was 6 bucks, same price as a new pair of Levi's.
knew that was not my destination but what does an 18 year old kid know?
Wish I would have bought that car, would of had it paid off last month.

LOL Zim

Point proven again, Chevy equals fast.

Had this in 78..i was 22....454 with 2 Holley 600,s....Turbo 400...4.56 posi ....best pass was 12.69 @ 108.88.. I did all the body work and paint...motor swap...did it all.

I've had lots of old Pontiacs

'69 gto, 400 ram air III, tri-power switched that to a 428 with RAV heads etc
67 Ventura, 400, 4 barrel, 4 speed, breaker less factory distributer, 8 lug wheels
65 gto 455SD with sequential FI, 5 speed
71 LeMans Sport, 400, 4 barrel, 4 speed
68 Lemans 350 2 barrel, red convertible
65 Tempest wagon, 326 HO, 5 speed
65 Tempest 326 HO, 4 speed,
and I'm sure there was more, just can't remember them all.

I also had a 67 Chevelle, Face facts, chevies were a step down from Pontiacs, the interiors were cheap, dash and gages 2nd rate. Any car can be made fast.

The year I graduated HS ('76) I had the 69 GTO at that time it had a RA III 400 with a tri power on it, my older brother had a '69 Z28, my younger brother a '70 Chevelle SS396 and my cousin who was living with us at the time had a '72 GTO with a 455HO.
We raced many times, The quickest was the '72 GTO, it was geared nicely with 3.90's, my GTO had highway gears, 2.73's, I was the fastest, on a long enough straight I caught and passed them all, the Chevelle 2nd quickest and the Z28 was way 3rd fastest.
After I switched to a 428 with RAV top end I also went to 4.10 gears then I killed them all easily.

My favorite was the '67 ventura, it just such a cool car, all original, bench seats, 4 speed. That car had a heater that heated up the inside so much you could cook a turkey in there!!

Some test facts ....1967 Chevelle ...best et 14.9.....and the next page shows 1967Gto ..14.21 et.
