    Bought a 62 a couple of months ago. I got the car as a roller just put a new small block in it with a 4 speed and a different set of wheels and tires. Next plans will be some interior and body work

    Cutouts, a crossram, and a 4 speed in a 62 Chevy = VERY COOL.

    [​IMG] Brings back great memories. When the Maryland state police updated their fleet, there were a bunch of these in Epps Motors used car lot all lined up. Some were painted in odd colors others just had the seal primered over. All were 327 300 and 3 on the tree. All were 2 door sedans. Most of them got a 4 speed as soon as they got home. This was before the 350 trans.

    Big fan here. Post, sbc, 4gear, w/cross ram to boot, hell yeah! With steep gears that woulda been a headhunter of the era. Sweet.

  11. Looks like it was fawn beige - I've had 3 61's that color and a couple hot rods too. The x-frame cars are great!.
