Day 2 Chevelle
 
2 Attachment(s)
A 69 Chevelle in my area. Back in the day and present. That is the original burnished brown paint never repainted except for some touch up near bottom of car. Paint looks good but whenyou get 10 feet away the primer is showing through in multiple areas from waxing over the years but that is what makes it cool.

427 with Edelbrock tunnel ram.

I love it.

Looked good with the Cragar's, but I've always been a sucker for Centerlines too. :3gears:

Very nice - of course I do seem to have a soft spot for '69 Chevelles.

Love that interior shot with the trio on the column, the Hurst shifter and the fire bottle real close. The engine bay is oh so classic for the period. Great pictures...thank you for sharing.

Very common mod/trend back then though most guys just took off their windshield wipers.

I ran without wipers in my black 68 SS Nova for many years. Just kept rainex handy.
