Default My new 70 Chevelle

Hello all, Iv' e been lurking around lateral-G for about a year collecting information while I was building my 70 firebird. But always wanted a 70 Chevelle. My plan was to drive the bird around for a year of so and to have a Chevelle by my 50th birthday (im 48). Well I just couldn't wait. I saw this 70 Chevelle list on Lateral-G and, went to see it this weekend and pulled the trigger. My immediate plans for the car is to do nothing but drive it. But it only has a muncie 4 speed and that wont cut it, so I see a 5 speed in it for next year. Props to Jamie who built the car he put it together just the way I would have but saved me the time and headaches.

Wow, That's a beautiful Chevelle. The firebird is killer also, but I'm a little partial to chevelle's. What tranny are you going to go with?
