New from Michigan

Hi everyone, I picked up this 72 Chevelle the day before Thanksgiving (just in time to put it away for the season:() I got to drive it a whole 10 miles! I've been trolling the Chevelle sights every day since, trying to absorb what I can. I was looking around here and thought you don't have enough people on here from MI., so thought I would add one more.:D

This car started life as a green Malibu w/ a 350ci. and a column shift, but was ordered with buckets, I'm told a woman ordered the car and wanted buckets & column shift so she could put her purse between the seats. The owner prior to me did a frame off res. and made it an SS clone. He left the interior green, put new green vinyl top on, and you can't tell from garage pics, but the stirpes are actually a very dark matalic green too. I'm just itching to drive this thing! I'm going to give this picture thing a try, hope it works. Thanks for looking.

Gary

Welcome Gary, from a fellow Michigan member. She's a beauty!

wow she looks real good! welcome to the site.

Sweet ride, love the white with black racing stripes. Very clean looking car.

Welcome to our site. Nice looking car you have there.

Another Michigander here.

I think that we need to get you to go down to the NOCC show, need as many as we can from "these parts". You should check out the thread on the Northern Ohio Chevelle Club show. It is a great show to go to, especially to show off your car.

Where's Lenard located?
