the white interior is gettin a little worn looking, so next up is all new all white interior with procar rally seats. new wheels and tires.... https://static1.pt-content.com/images/noimg.gifwhat do you think?

oh yea, i have driven this car everyday since middle of sophmore year in highschool. ive been through 3 states, driven over countless passes in a few snowstorms, rain, mud, track whatever. they're ment to be driven...and i'm lovin every minute of it, plus it gets reasonable gas mileage (15-17mpg) too..which is nice.... take it easy.

Welcome to the site, Dan. Great looking chevelle. I think the new wheels and drop are going to look great. Don't worry about the big buck cars, there's room for everyone on pt.com, and all are welcome. You don't even need to own a car to participate.

Dan,
Welcome to the site. This quote by you is my favorite and I agree 100% "oh yea, i have driven this car everyday since middle of sophmore year in highschool. ive been through 3 states, driven over countless passes in a few snowstorms, rain, mud, track whatever. they're ment to be driven...and i'm lovin every minute of it"
Your Chevelle looks very nice. Is that a photoshop of your wheels or is that the real deal? Looks great either way. :cool:
