Default New guy from Livermore Ca. (70' Chevelle)
My name is Nick, I live in Livermore Ca. (Northern Ca.). My first car was a 70' Chevelle. Basic young kid story of playing with a muscle car every day after school and on the weekends. Loved it, but found myself into trouble street racing and the car ended up in a million pieces from big idea's of a full race car but never even came close to finishing it. It now sits in my fathers garage , hope's of one day having my first car back on the road never happened.

I am married and have 3 kids and really been wanting another Chevelle for a nice cruiser for the family. I found this 70' Chevelle for sale a couple months ago and purchased it.

Details:
47k miles
307 all stock
20" Coys Wheels polished
255/35r20 front
275/40r20 rear

Car was painted about 2 months ago and it's not my first choice of color
but it really looked pretty nice after seeing it and it will hold me over till I am ready to do what I want for paint after I tackle some other parts of the car. Over all I am happy, it's not a 100% perfect car but I am OK with that as I can go at my own pace but still enjoy it with my wife and kids.





And here I feel is the best part, my kids (1 is missing as she is alittle older and doesn't like pics) This is something we can all jump in and take out on the weekend for lunch or just drive around on a sunny day.

yes, he's very talented. I met him in September. I sold my twin turbo Duramax to a guy in Texas, and he had me drop the truck off at Nicks shop to do some suspension and wheel/tire changes before shipping it to Texas.
