Project Chevillain 1967 Chevelle
 
I guess I have made it far enough to start a build thread. This is our 67 Chevelle I picked up in Aug 2009 for $500.00. No motor or trans and it had been sitting for 15 years in northern California under a oak tree.

Nice work. It isn't too bad considering the tree thing. Its funny, the one I have has cherry floors but bad filler, roof and quarters too.
