I have been checking out this site out for a while now but just got around to registering. My name is Mike, I'm 30 and I hail from the biggest shit hole west of the Mississippi, Fresno Cal. Currently I own a '67 Chevelle, wich BTW is for sale, I like the car but I really want a traditional rod. I've never owned anything but Chevy's but I guess that will have to change. With the money I get from my car and whatever else I can scrounge up I want to build a 5 window, something along the lines of this: http://i2.ebayimg.com/01/i/00/fb/ab/c0_1_s.JPG BTW if this car belongs to someone on this BB, GREAT JOB! Your car is the single most bitchin' ride I've ever seen. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Welcome aboard Muttley. ('67 chevelles rule) http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif Haha, mine may feel abandoned and unloved (as evidenced by the recently discovered leaky heater core) but I will NEVER sell it.

There are early chevy coupes out there. A couple weeks ago, there was a really nice '32 coupe on ebay from kansas or somewhere out west. It looked like it would be a great project car. Look at it this way, if you build a chevy, no one can give you grief for your motor not being traditional enough! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

No FLAT-TOP I dont know him, at least I dont think so, what does he drive? My pop's might know him he's at all the shows and cruise nites. He's got a '27 R/PU on a duece frame, black w/flames, w/chevy power. I'll ask him next time I see him.
