Mike Muellers 1993 "Chevelle 1964-1972",is pretty good,as well as his,1995 "Chevelle Buyers guide".But they are mostly pix,and HP facts,nothing much beyond that.
Paul Herds 1992 book,"Chevelle SS Restoration Guide" isn't very accurate,& take its info with a grain of salt. I don't think there is one "all Chevelle questions answered" book.You have to read them all and sift seperate the facts from the here say. Reading Old Car mags from the 60's-70's that Feature Chevelles in them is a good source too. I thought I heard at SCR7 that there is going to be a Chevelle Book coming out soon,but I can't confirm that.Can anyone else here help with that? If it's true,it's long over due... Why the sudden interest? |

Believe the add'l book you might be trying to recall is titled Chevelle SS 1964-1972, A Muscle Car Source Book. The author is Jeffrey Steffes. It was published this year. It is available via Amazon.

That's not the book I was referring to.
There was a gentleman taking pictures of DC's Chevelle @ SCR7 & said he was compiling information to write a Very detailed book about these cars.It would not be in Stores for at least 18 months,I thought he said. |

Rick,
The fellow's name is Jim Schild. He was gathering photos and info for the "Chevelle" book while at SCR7. If I remember correctly he also shot Mark Hassett's car. (?) His past works have been in the MOPAR field but was contacted by the publisher to do a book on the Chevelle, and took the assignment. He is associated with "The Auto Review" and told me up front he had a lot to learn about Bowties! As you mentioned, I wouldn't expect to see this available until late 2005 or early 2006. DC
