65 Chevelle for ya

Heya - Wanted to add my ride to all the nice ones on this post. I put her up for the winter today.....had to let her growl a bit beforehand though! My neighbors love me....

427 built, Muncie 4 speed, high gear....she's nasty!

1978 Chevette

A car similar to this one was the first car my mother had. Only ours had a different color: it was light brown.

1952 Chevy

From what I've learned, this one is STILL in use a daily car.

Lead, Follow, Or get out of the way.

How about South Bend fibreglas?

 

[Aage]

could this be a '29 Durant?

That's my dad and his brother, with his mom and her friend in the car. Dunno if anybody that would know the car model can see enough of it to tell...

1951 Cadillac

This one is seeing some use, being rented for weddings.

I like this one better. I believe it was painted and maintained by a very young Don Phrudome.

Nope, it was Tommy Ivo.

Nice, Jim, but jeepers, no shots from behind of those gorgeous cats-eyes fins?

My old beater chevy....(first car)

I know it's a 66, but not sure if it's an Impala or Bel-Air... since it's a post car I'm going to say Bel-Air. :scratch2:

Sure is a pretty one though! :thmbsp:

what a ride

I stuck a couple of my late Father-In-Law's cars in the Ford thread, but he loved his GMs, too. I have a feeling he'd get a real kick out of these pictures being out there for all to appreciate, so I hope you all enjoy.

The BelAir was something he picked up from a junkyard, and slowly restored. In these pics it's got an Earl Sheib paint job & a bent bumper, but he was really proud of that thing.

The GTO story goes something like this: "I tell you, I couldn't get out of my driveway without getting a ticket in that thing. No joke."

The LeMans was really his pride & joy, pretty sure it was his first brand new car. I think these shots were from Easter Sunday- I love this picture of Sue, my Mother-In-Law, looking like Winona Ryder.

Have fun...

What does it say on the front fender of the GTO?

Looks like "The Stinger"... :scratch2:

My dad had a 57 Chevy back in the day... he always talked about that car.

It was a Bel-Air, two door hardtop, with what he told me to be a "210 power
pack". The car had a 283 V8 with a four barrel carb, dual exhaust with glass
packs, 4:11 posi rear gears, with a three on the tree tranny with overdrive.

Copper color with a white top and a two tone black & white interior.

Dad had to sell it when he tried to teach Mom how to drive a stick...

He kept saying, "All she wanted to do was flat tear holes in the pavement"!

Way to go Mom!

Some more Chevys

Gotta go back a few years but my first car was a mint 1964 Impala 4-door - 283 Powerglide. Next up was a '66 Chevy II - same powertrain - not my best car but quicker than the '64.

Few years later I picked up a gorgeous '67 Impala SS 396. This was my driver for a long time - 72,000 miles. Excellent ride!

Thanks Scott! You were close, it's actually a Biscayne.
