Here's four of our ten chevys, the chevelles of course.

The 69 was my first car that I've had since I was 14. It's been through the high school beatings, followed by a good deal if drag racing in the late eighties where it was well into the 10's. It now is basically a fun TYR FRYN street bruiser thrashing tires with a 427 4 speed with 4.56s out back. Very fun street ride.

The 68 is my nicest one. Actually an all original 307 glide but completely rebuilt drivetrain, original bucket seat console car. It's cosmetic side is that of a beasty 427 clone car. Looks tough, drives sweet, and still gets 20 MPG.

The 73 SS was a car we found in a garage for my brother several years ago. Original 454 car with under 89000 original miles. The original engine has been freshened up with trw forged pop-ups, pocket ported original heads, and several other upgrade goodies to make some power. 2200 stall added to the original trans that has only had the pan off for a shift improver kit. out back is a set of 3.42s, interior has also been redone and is now ready to have the rust free body redone back to new. My brother got in a little finacial trouble so we bought it and it's being sent for paint within the next month

The 74 Laguna is also an original low mile 454 car with 82k. The original engine is in storge and a very healthy 468 rests( ok fights) in it's place. Also with a understalled 2200 stall like it's sister 73 but has 3.73's out back. Rust free but could also use a fresh coat of paint as the original paint has seen better days. This car routinely gets thrashed on and sees track duty. A good safe driving tank of a car that comes inat over 4500 lbs with driver but still dips into the 12's with ease even with the mild stall that doesn't help it's heavy weight getting out of the hole.

I'd post some of the other Family FRYNTYR toys but looks like just chevelles unless you'd all like to view the others too.

Nice bunch of cars. I can't speak for others, but I like almost any car. They all got their own character.

I really like the 73/74 cars. I have a 454SS Elky myself.

Ya, they have grown on me and I tell you what, these gen 3 chevelles drive really nice. Many people don't like them but I bet if they got to play with the"GOON" (laguna) for a week they'd think differently.

My wife still doesn't like them. Funny thing is they both are in her name,,,LOL!! She swore that would never happen. LMAO.

You might as well show off whats in the back shop as well Darryl. You do have a truly fine collection of cars. The thing I like the best about your rides is you are not afraid to run them. I really would like the chance to run (get beat buy) against the 69 or 68 this up coming season.

Nice cars...

I like '73s and early Lagunas (the 73, 74? front). I used to have a 73 that I got for free... Fun car, maybe someday I'll get another...

I can't wait for the bbq. Nothing motivates, and inspires me , more than having a wander around the Fryntyr Big Block Emporium.

Not going to be able to say that much longer, huh Doc.:cool:

Funny, I still can't get used to seeing the Welfare Nova all one color.
