No doubt about it, beautiful cars. We have a 70 Chevelle SS 396 (My wife's car for college) not supercharged though. Too original, can't mess with it.

I had a 72 SS that I sold back in the mid 80's and you guessed, I am still kicking my self in the ass for selling it.

HA awesome... my dad had a first gen Monte Carlo back when I was knee high to a grasshopper. I believe it was a 1970 w/ the 350ci. It may have even been the 4 bbl version of that engine, hard to say but I know he always complained that it wasn't what he ordered (a base model) so he wouldn't take delivery on it and the dealer finally let him take it for what the base went for. Silver with black vinyl top, pretty car and fast. Still looks good in the family album pictures, we have Mt. Rushmore in the background for one vacation pic of the car. Always wanted to get one and restore it then give it to him as a present.

Here's a couple of our Chevelle for you....I wish I had the one from the last weekend that Carlsbad Raceway was open...he won best burnout in the burnout contest for that....it was almost the whole 1/4 mile.

DAMIT! I thought it was a 69! I am losing my touch. The headlights are what get me every time.

I have no issues what so ever with the GTOs, I just really like the other cars a little bit better.

LOL I was just bustin your chops! Its all good. I was going to by a 67 Chevelle instead back in the day but I decided on my Goat. I think it was a good choice but every friggin time I see a 67 all beautied up I get a little sad
