Had to junk it for $50. No way to fix , no where to store it . State Police towed it, I had to leave the scene because I had booze on my breath .
Was a pretty cool car. I have love for all generations of Chevelles .
My parents brought me home from the hospital at my birth in a 70 ss 396. My uncle still owns that car with only 22k miles on it .
Yep, I'm an equal opportunity American car guy, if it's cool, than I like it, but I have a thing for Chevies, especially the chevelle, then impala, then nova, then camaro.
