Bills72sj Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 This model is an approximation of the real Chevelle my friend Mike M. had right after we graduated high school. It was a true SS 396 in red with black stripes, black interior and black vinyl top. It was a 4-speed and the engine was built up with Holley, Edelbrock and Hooker parts. The thing was bad fast too. We had to go WAY out to the country to look at it which helped as they only wanted $1000 for it. If it wasn't, it would have been snatched up long before we got there. This model is the closest to box stock as I have ever built. I did add some photo etch emblems. I am about 70% happy with the paint and 95% happy with all the details.
GeeBee Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Looks a fine build, love all the detail you put into it.
Dragonhawk1066 Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Looks great! I'm not normally a fan of red cars, but those Chevelle's wear the color splendidly.
Bills72sj Posted December 19, 2019 Author Posted December 19, 2019 Thank you all for the compliments.
