New from Wisconsin....

Howdy,

I am new to Chevelles. I spend the last eight years finishing and restoring a .65 Mustang Fastback. I like to attend and participate at the local shows, and the Mustang did pretty good. I had always admired the look and styling of the Chevelles. I sold the Mustang last month and I am now on the hunt for the next car.

I especially like the '66 or '67 cars, so I am looking to buy a Chevelle or Malibu convertible. I have quickly found out that the market is tough when trying to buy one of these. Consistently, the cars I've seen so far have been molested and are a far far away from what would be factory correct. How rare is it to find a Chevelle or Malibu convertible that has been restored back to "factory original specs"? Pricing seems to be on the high end and add in a BB and 4 Speed, and prices are really crazy!

For starters - I would ask if there is a monthly magazine devoted to vintage Chevelles and Malibus? Also, is there one or more books about Chevelles that are recognized as being the best or the gold standard for a new guy like me?
