Testing the waters to see if there is any interest in my awesome real deal documented L79 chevelle,this car was done with all n.o.s or assy line pieces only a handful of repo stuff used.It has enough paperwork to choke a horse and the orig owner lives down the road from me still,i also still have the orig 1967 pa title.Its deepwater blue with black bucket seat interior: tach@gauges,m21,355 posi(now 410),metallic brakes(nos),rear seat speaker, orig am/fm radio(added) ,rear antenna,tinted glass,hd clutch, F70 redline tires etc.The car is all born with components except the short block which was warranty replaced with a 302 in 1972(have the dealership paperwork) to prove it and the orig owner still has the 302,it has a correct orig 67 chevelle l79 short block it the car now with all the orig top end ,m21 still has the vin # on top,the carb,dist,alt,valve covers,radiator,fan,master cyl etc are all orig to the car.I installed a few day 2 bolt on items that could easily be removed if wanted ie: orig ET lift bars,orig hurst dual duty rear shocks,cragar wheels,clear dist cap,orig old nos appliance headers 4 flange (heat treated in white),orange wires.The car is straight as an arrow and body and paint are beautiful,front fenders were nos as well as the rear quarter panels all else is orig even the windshield with its 1981 insp sticker which was the last time it was driven,the floors and trunk are solid and rust free and has its orig jack,trunk mat and orig spare with orig redline tire .Iam asking 60k but may consider a trade and some $$$ or may trade up also for the right car ie: superbird,z28,copo etc.thanks 570-854-0896

I am sure it will be Scott, you always have very nice cars. Looking forward to seeing pictures when it's done.

The 67 and 68 L79 Chevelles are not seen very often, and most people don't know what they are looking at. Most people think they were made only in 65.

Probably because the L79 option in 67 and 68 was not a very popular option as compared to the SS396. Only 4048 in 1967 and 4082 in 1968. Now compare that to SS396 production: 64,000 in 1967 and 57,600 in 1968

Yes and most 396 owners who took them on got schooled.......Those time slips were in stock form with bias tires,he told me with open headers, slicks,gears and bigger carb the car ran 12. 20s in the 1/4.

The 150 pound difference between the 327 and the 396 can account for that.

By 1967/1968 buyers of high performance cars wanted big block engines, hoods with scoops or bulges, stripes, redline tires and most of all . . . a catchy name. R/T, GTX, SS, GT Road Runner, 442 etc. The market for "Q-Ship" muscle cars was very limited.

Very nice car..:worship:

?? Not sure I understand the HP rating for the 67 engine...if it was 350hp in 1966, why is it 325hp in 67 ?? I know there was a change at some point to the cast iron intake w/QJ...but it looks like this car has the aluminum intake and a Holley.

I believe the 325HP rating was so it didn't have the same HP rating has the 396 350HP. The L79 in 67 did come with the aluminum intake and Holley 585 CFM carb. The 68 come with cast manifold and Quad a jet carb. Please correct me if I am wrong.

The 1965/1966 L79 is rated 350 HP @ 5800 RPM. The 1967/1968 L79 is rated 325 HP at 5600 RPM.

They never made a 66 l79 chevelle,they rated it at 325 in a 67 chevelle because they didnt want it to hurt corvette sales even thou it was the identical engine in a corvette which was 325 hp.last year for the aluminum intake and holley.
