Iīd like to join the forum and find out what I donīt know and why to get a Chevelle as my next car...

A little about myself:

Soon to turn 50 years young.
Have wasted far to many years on motorbikes but have found an urge to explore american mucsle cars, a bit late but still.

Iīve had an 1958 Cadillac, an 1973 Stingray Convertible and I now have an 1957 Bel Air Sport Sedan wich I will sell to finance the purchase of some kind of an musclecar, perhaps an Chevelle depending on what I find when I have the money...

Letīs just wait and see if I find what I look for.

I used to ride a Ducati Monster, I had one for six years but I found myself tired of riding alone so I sold it and picked up an surpressed dream of owning american classic cars.

My first classic was an 1958 Cadillac Series 62 with extended deck.
That car was long, too long for my garage so I sold it after one year.

Next car was another old dream, a 1973 Stingray Convertible, I really enjoyed that car for two summers.

Now I have an 1957 Bel Air Sport Sedan with full history to the first owner, you can find some of it here: www.chevy57.se

Now I have the Bel Air for sale and when itīs gone I will look for a late sixties or early seventies musclecar, possibly a Chevelle wich Iīm very fond of.

I am not fanatic in any kind, I will look for a nice and tempting car of any brand so I might as well end up wth a Ford or a Mopar...

Now, if your in Sweden it has to be a little more difficult to find some of these cars, or am I wrong. Are the american made cars easily found in Sweden?

No, we actually have a lot of america cars here.
Especially considering we are a quite small country with just over 9 million citizens.

It is actually quite difficult to find buyers to all of the cars that is for sale but that can also be seen as many sellers put too high price on their cars.

Have a look at one of our most popular ad sites: http://www.usabil.nu/default.asp

You will find a lot of american cars in all kinds of shapes.

No need to, on the left side you can click on the american banner and change the language.
