Default 1967 Chevelle SS396

Hi!

My name is Alex and I´m from Stockholm, Sweden.
I´m about to start a PT-project of my ´67 Chevelle SS396, after a long whiles thinking.
I´m not one of those matching numbers-freaks, but the cars´s drivetrain is correct, so that´s been my problem.
And also, I love them Pro-Touring ´67-68 Camaros, so I´ve been interested in selling the Chevelle and building one of those instead.

But finally, I think I´ve made up my mind, and hopefully will be starting the Chevelle-project very soon.

My plans this far is a fuelinjected 502 and a Richmond 6-speed, Wilwood brakes, A Strange S60 rearaxle, a Global West-kit in the front, 18"s in the front and 20"s in the back.

Because of the budget, I´ll be starting off with the rearaxle, brakes and the front kit.

Here´s some pictures of the car today.

Thank´s for the great site!!!

Alex

Thank´s guys for the warm welcome, it feels good to be here and I´ll definately keep you posted!

Now I´m thinking of letting Problem Child Kustoms make me some sketches for the car.

Nice 67'! Its always good to catch another one around here. I know its hard to change an original car like that but as long as you keep it all bolt in you can always go back.

Thank´s man!

You´ve got a really nice ´67 yourself.

It´s true about the bolt-ons, but the thing is, that I don´t want to be stuck halfway through the project if some plans are changing and I need to cut something apart....

Nice ride! I'm of the opinion that cutting one up is OK as ling as it's not a super rare car. A '67 Chevelle SS396 isn't all that rare, so if you need the torch or sawzall, I say go for it!
