67 Chevelle SS396 Convertible

[SpeedyV10]

Hey Guys!

I know that I haven't posted for a long time, but I still lurk quite a bit.

Earlier this summer, I sold the Pimpala. It was a difficult decision to make, but my next door neighbor purchased it. He is a very cool guy and will take amazing care of it. I guess that I still get visitation rights!!!

I began my search for something new to begin with. I have always loved PT cars, but tend to stay on the budget side of things.

Here is the car I got just a couple weeks ago. It's a rust free '67 Chevelle SS 396 Ragtop. It's a real 138 car. Interestingly enough, it was built in the Maryland plant on 9/7 of 1966, and is convertible body #000013.

Currently, it has a mild 396 with a 2-4's setup. Auto trans, and 12 bolt rear. So far, I have added Global west tubular A-arms, 1.5" front bar, and 1" rear, hotchkis drop springs, and HD Bilstein shocks. The Wheels are Boss 338's (18x8 and 18x9.5) for now, wrapped in Nitto 555's.

This winter, I would like to install my Muncie 4 speed, and upgrade to a big Wilwood setup both front and rear. I have alot of 'UGLY' to remove from under the hood so be nice....I've only had it 2 weeks :-)

Here are some before pics from 2 weeks, ago, and well as an 'after' pic.
