Montanass, i wish mine was a 327, it's a 307. Original owner car from southern Cali. up until 2004. Came with all it's original documents and maintance reciepts in the orig. owners name and phone#. I called the # and spoke with the original owner, Francis, he answered some questions for me, that was pretty cool! I almost did'nt buy it from the 2nd owner because of the 307, but it runs great! Decent gas mileage to, last chevelle was a big block. I plan on upgrading the engine when i'm done with the suspension, brakes and wheels, i wish it was a 327 car though!

Welcome to the best site going for anything PT--best people for sure.

I am looking forward to your wheel pictures when you get them on the car---those Rushforths will look awesome on it. What color combo did you choose on the wheels? How about sizes?

Keep us posted!!!

Doug

Dfresh, polished hoops with brushed/cleared centers and polished hardware. 18by9 front with 275/35zr18 and 18by10 with 305/35zr18 Jon at Driverzinc recommend those tire/wheel sizes. I thought they were a little wide for a lowered 68 chevelle, but from what i've read here and on p-t.com Jon is the man when it comes to wheel fitment! Thanks.
