Default Who agrees with me?

Would everyone not agree that GM should've made a Chevelle that had a '70 front end (4 headlights), with a '71 rear bumper (4 round taillights)?

I swear, if they would've done that, it would've been the best selling Chevelle ever!

I THINK THE 70 BUMPER IS PERFECT!

I agree with Don.
Especially when talking about the SS Model.The 70 rear SS pad is much more appealing then the petite 71-71 rear SS emblem.
It's Bolder and just Blends Better overall,I think as well as those 70 rectangular tail lights.

Are you talking about back then... or now?

You do know they are working on a new Chevrolet Coupe for 2008... don't you?

I AGREE with Micky and Dan.. '69 Chevelle is what I wanted when I was a Kid and couldn't have, mostly because of the insurance.

I agree completely. I had that thought to, when I drove my friend Hans LS-5 -71 last summer.
But my new ride is a -69, a 396 SS. From the factory it was fathom green with black vinyl top, and a four on the floor. But now it´s red with an automatic. It has made 10.20 on the strip. The last time it had the rearbumper on the ground. All steel, except the hood.

I personally think GM did it right the 1st time.If you like that style you need to rent the dvd SPEED DEMON from blocbuster.That movie has just what your looking for.kinda B rated but fun to watch.I love the way the 70 ss rear pad was.My opinion
