This is my 1966 Chevy chevelle. Got it from my uncle when I was 17. I'm finally have time and a semi decent job so can start messing with it. My plan is to get it back running right( I have a good 350 sitting if needs be), then rebuild the suspension, then attack the body.
The engine is a 283 v8 that has been bored .030 over, mild can, headers, and a retuned 2bbl carb. I had it running good a year ago so hopefully nothing bad just to get started.
The suspension is what you would think for a 66. Needs entire rebuild all bushings, bearings and so on. I have put on new shocks on the front and air shocks in the rear ( they were free! So don't hate).
The body. Rust in the fenders, doors, quarter panels and in the trunk. Floors and roof are good. I have saved this for last because it will take the most work, time and money. And I don't have a mig gun yet.
One day I hope to have this car repainted back to the factory lite blue, black interior, 383 stroker, and be proud of her. I'm the third owner of this car. So will see......

. I hope to have the suspension knocked out before winter is in full swing. I don't have a shop so this is being done outside.
