Hi there. I must say that I don't own a Chevelle, however, I am elbow deep in a car that belongs to a client of mine which is a 70 Chevelle SS 396. I am a MOPAR guy, have three old ones, plus a new Challenger and Charger RT. However, I have a Chevy Avalanche I bought new in Dec 02 and this is the best vehicle I've ever owned! It has 160K on it and still going strong; that LS engine is awesome, the tranny is another story though. I am strongly considering buying a new Camaro SS as they are cheaper than the equivalent Challenger, and have more HP, rather on par HP with the SRT-8 models.

So, I'd like to share with you all, and glean information about your Chevelle's and experiences in rebuilding/restomodding it, or even a full on restoration.

I'll be posting a thread of this car, in progress as it came to me, to where it is now, and of course to completion of my contract. Is there any particular forum I should place this in?

Welcome Donny from another 70 owner.
Glad to have you here. You can post pictures in any forum that you are working on, engine, paint and body. interior, suspension or the restoration forum if you are trying to keep it original. Or if you just want to show off the car you can use the Chevelle gallery. You have lots of options. I try to ask my question in the area that I'm working on.
