Had to move the Chevelle from one side of the garage the other day, so took a few video's to remind me of the sound of Spring at various fast idle rpm's. Plus this way I have video's to use when I put the engine on CL.

Turn it up and enjoy: [video=https:/...

We were able to stop on our trip tp Phoenix, not a lot of cars from the 60’s, probably around 100. Mostly cars from the early 1900’s; but 40’s, 50’s, and 50’s represented. I am including a few photo’s.

Currently I have the body up and off the frame of my 66. I noticed the fuel line is a little rusted where it runs up and over the frame. I could clean it up and put some rust converter on it; but think it may be better to replace the line now as on a 66 you have to raise the body off the frame to replace the fuel line....
