Hey everyone! I've been away from the forums for about a year(!) but I have a valid excuse... I've been busy getting the Chevelle up and going! I took it to my first event last weekend, the Driveautox at Grissom in Peru, IN.

Overall the car did awesome! I didn't win and I wasn't the fastest by any stretch, but I did get to push the car, play with some shock adjustments, and have a blast! I think as I learn the car we will get faster and better.

Here are some videos and pics from the weekend.

And here are a couple of interior shots now that it's done...

Damn, that car is bad ass. I love the color. I have a white 66, I wish mine was that blue. Is it Marina Blue, or what blue?

Thanks! It's Marina Blue. Don't let the pictures fool you, in real life, it's kinda rough, but it sure is photogenic!

Thanks Trey! I wish the forums weren't so time consuming to post pics. FB and IG have made me pretty lazy with this stuff!
