Re: A new Chevelle addtion to the "family"
a 70 could come with plastic on one side and steel on the other.
just a matter of what was on hand.

Re: A new Chevelle addtion to the "family"
Thanks for the explanation Donnie
 I think the car is way cool! Mark, I like the idea of the BIG small block...though he would have to save the original engine!

Re: A new Chevelle addtion to the "family"
Wow! What a great car. Love the red interior. I'd leave it a regular Malibu. There's way too many SS and SS clones out there nowadays.

Re: A new Chevelle addtion to the "family"
I live 20 miles from Grand Blanc. How long ago did you buy it? where did you see it advertised? I hate it when I miss one so close to home. With the price of gas leave the 307 in it I have a 71 with a 307 and it gets great milage.

Re: A new Chevelle addtion to the "family"
It varies from plant to plant. Some use one each, some use both plastic and some use all metal. It is very common to see the battery side on Baltimore cars as plastic or both plastic while I rarely see plastic on Leeds cars as an example.
Overspray on the underside of the hood is also common though this one is really heavy compared to most that I see. Very nice original car. I see the lack of chrome trim on the bucket seat bottoms. Curious about that as I normally do not see chrome on seat bottoms of SS cars but do on Malibu's.

Re: A new Chevelle addtion to the "family"
I like the red bucket seat interior on a plain janer. Makes for a nice sleeper.
and before somebody else asks....
